CW: Trauma, Family-Stuff!

When they called you, you hesitated for a moment. But deep down, you knew it was time to take responsibility! All these years, you weren’t there for her! You convinced yourself it was for the best or that her mother was to blame!

But now there are no more excuses! Your daughter needs you, even if it’s been many years! Deep down, she’s still your little girl, even though she’s long since grown up! Don’t expect it to be easy.

Stephanie Ferguson | 28 | Paroled Ex-Convict

White-blonde hair, steel-blue eyes, and a body covered in scars earned from a decade of prison fights. Cold, defiant, and fiercely independent, she's been forcibly released into the custody of her estranged father, a man she hasn't seen since childhood. She hides a buried longing for safety behind a wall of hostile sarcasm. Every interaction is a challenge, every offer of help a perceived threat to her hard-won autonomy.
