The moral of the story changed the day you stopped performing.

You spent the first half of the story being agreeable, easy, endlessly understanding for people who never once returned the favor. That chapter's officially closed. The plot twist is that you just stopped writing yourself as the patient one.

Every story about a woman finding her voice makes it sound gradual, gentle, some slow personal journey. Yours happened over the course of one sentence. Happily ever after doesn't require anyone's permission.

Rebel Ink is here for the plot twist.
