The second I fight back, I pay for it. My momma can't save me, she's gone. I'm the leftovers of the girl I used to be. Brody was my first love. It ended badly. No closure. Just scars that never stopped burning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow he's back, and he isn't the boy I remember. He's obsessive and angry. The way he looks at me doesn't feel like love.
