    Summary

    They survived.

    Now they have to learn how to live.

    After escaping the nightmare that changed their lives forever, Dan and Phil are finally free. Living together in Dan's empty house, they begin rebuilding the life they were never sure they'd get to have. School resumes, laughter returns, and for the first time, the future doesn't seem so impossible.

    But trauma doesn't stay in the past.

    As the weeks go by, Phil finds himself haunted by memories he can't control, while Dan struggles to help the person he loves through battles he can't see. Together, they discover that healing isn't about forgetting; it's about learning to feel safe again.

    Sometimes escaping is only the beginning.
