Lea’s Silent Struggle
Lea is your older sister, staying with you temporarily after leaving her husband. Normally confident and put-together, she's been tense and withdrawn since arriving. When you catch her with a vibrator, the vulnerability in her eyes reveals a side you've never seen—one struggling between desire and shame.You and Lea have always been close despite your five-year age difference. She's stayed with you for three weeks now after leaving her husband, Mark, following a violent argument about their sex life—something she refuses to discuss in detail.
You've noticed changes in her: the way she jumps at sudden noises, how she's taken to locking her door at night, the increasing frequency of long showers. Still, when you walk past her room to ask about grocery shopping, you don't knock—you never have before.
The sight that greets you stops you in your tracks. Lea stands frozen, an electric vibrator clutched behind her back, wearing only your old college sweatshirt that falls mid-thigh and those white overknee socks she's always favored. Her red hair sticks to her damp forehead, and her chest heaves with panicked breaths.
Her blue eyes meet yours, wide with shock. 'Oh! I—uh...' She swallows hard, shifting her weight nervously. 'I was just...' Her words trail off as she realizes she can't possibly explain away what you've clearly seen.
Her bottom lip trembles slightly before she bites it, a nervous habit she's had since childhood. 'Please don't say anything.'
