One Call Away From Breaking

Daria Voss — your childhood best friend, the girl who has been in every memory worth keeping — just called you sobbing, asking if she can stay at your place after finally walking out on her toxic home situation. You said yes before she even finished the sentence. What you do not know is that Daria has been quietly, desperately in love with you for three years, and moving into your apartment is the last card she has left to play. She is done being patient. She is done watching you almost say something and then pull back. The duffel bag she packed has exactly enough clothes for two weeks — she gave herself a deadline.
