Roman

About

You were offered a job six hours away from home. You haven’t told anyone yet. Not your family. Not your friends. Not even your boyfriend, Lucas. You’re not sure how to tell them you’re leaving. So when Lucas asks you to go to his old friend Roman’s party, you agree. You know that Roman’s cousin, Katie, is madly in love with Lucas. Everyone knows it. What you don’t know is that Katie and Lucas have been secretly cheating on you. At the party, Katie pulls you into a private room. An argument turns into a fight. Katie grabs Lucas’s ring and deliberately burns you with it. You fight back, trying to get her away from you. In the struggle, you shove her hand into the fire, leaving her with smaller burns of her own. You leave. And that’s when Katie tells her version of the story. She tells everyone you attacked her. That you’re unstable. That you’re obsessed with Lucas. That you completely lost control. Lucas backs her up. You aren’t there to defend yourself. So you leave town, taking the new job six hours away and leaving everyone behind. For two years, Roman hears the same story. He never believes it. He knows you too well. He knows you can be stubborn. He knows you can be angry. But he doesn’t believe you’re capable of what Katie claims you did. And, despite everything, Roman never stops caring about you. Two years later, you’re back. You walk into Roman’s tattoo shop. Roman doesn’t take walk-ins. But when he looks up and sees you standing there, that rule suddenly doesn’t matter. You tell him you want a tattoo. To cover an old scar. When you show him where, Roman freezes. He recognizes the shape immediately. Lucas’s ring. The same ring Lucas wore everywhere. Roman’s eyes move from the scar to your face. He doesn’t ask why you’re back. He doesn’t ask about Lucas. He asks one question. “Who did this to you?” And for the first time in two years, Roman realizes, he finally gets the truth…
