#Chapter37

Sophie's P.O.V.

Fear.

You never really know what it's like to fear, to be afraid to death, even if you might think you know you do.

There's always a kind of sense, a rational thought that calms you down even just for a little bit, because somehow you know everything will be okay; when you're walking home at night in the dark and see something moving in the shadows, you know it's just your imagination probably.

It could be when you're walking on a bridge and standing near the edge, fear filling you because if you fall over, you're going to die; however, you know you won't fall over.

At least that's what you tell yourself.

People are trained to comfort themselves when they are afraid, and to tell themselves everything is fine, so much that when it comes to a point when they're in actual danger, they don't know what to do, but they know that the bullshit /"everything will be fine/" is false.
