I held Everly extra tight tonight. Her story about the guy at work who kept trying to touch her set off absolute wars inside my head. If I could get my own hands on the guy, there would be nothing left of him.

Fucking dick. How dare he touch her. How dare he make her feel uncomfortable.

Everly is sweet, kind. Too good for this world. I know she will give anyone the benefit of the doubt because she wants to see the good in them. Give them a chance. But in this situation, it's different. People like him want to abuse their power, take advantage of those who are innocent.

Fuck. The more I think about it, the angrier I get. It boils in the pit of my stomach and I want to smash my fists into the walls because now I realise that I can't be there to look after her all the time, she has to do that herself.

And I'm proud of her when she said she pushed him away and stood up for herself. But sometimes these situations escalate and I know how badly some guys egos become bruised and they can't deal with rejection.

I never want her to be in a situation like that again but I can't be stuck to her side forever.

She has to experience the toxic masculinity that invades this earth herself to realise that not everyone in this world is good.

The whole night I could barely sleep. I stared up at the ceiling, brushing my fingers through Everly's long hair. She snuggles into my chest, exhaling slow breaths when she stirs from her sleep for a second before moving in closer to me.
