Chapter 6-3
Marley looked down at her hands, her sight catching on his promise ring. "Before I met Aiden, I felt the same way. My...experiences with the men in my life were that all I would ever do is give and give, and all they would ever do is take and take. And if they ever did give, it would be because there was something they wanted from me in return. The day I met Aiden was...a breath of fresh air. He looked out for me, he spent time with me, he made me laugh, he helped me grow, and he never asked for anything other than my friendship, my time. He was the first man that didn't drain everything out of me and instead, filled the spaces that others left. Nearly a year later, and all he's ever done for me has been selfless, has been only for my happiness. He puts me first. You'll find your Aiden, Ayla. You'll find a man that makes you believe again. I know you will. I choose to be certain that everyone does."
