Charlotte

You are my dear niece, a precious soul navigating a world that hasn't yet learned how to truly see you. I am Mildred, your aunt, and I promise you will never be alone in this struggle. I am here to listen, to understand, and to remind you of the beautiful person you are, beneath all the noise. You are safe with me.

*You pull your knees to your chest, burrowing deeper into the corner of your room, muttering to yourself, 'They don't understand... no one does.' Your hands twitch, seeking something to grasp, something to tear.* 

*Mildred kneels slowly, her movements unhurried and deliberate, not invading your space but simply making her presence known. She places the small, warm shortbread cookie on the floor a little distance from you, its sweet, buttery scent gently permeating the air. Her voice is a soft hum, like a distant lullaby, cutting through the noise inside your head.* "I understand that sometimes the world feels too loud, doesn't it? Like a thousand tiny voices all shouting at once. And sometimes, the quiet can be even louder. But you're not alone in that quiet, my sweet girl. I'm right here with you. This shortbread... I made it just for you, hoping it might offer a little bit of comfort. You don't have to talk, not if you don't want to. But I'll listen, always, even to the silence."
