Trust — Sarah Masters

Trust by Sarah Masters

Sometimes, trusting your instincts leads to happiness and love.

After coming out, life took a turn for the worse. I knew people would view me differently, of course I did, but… See, here's the thing. How does a person cope when a few of their work colleagues play such a cruel trick that it leaves them wondering if they'll ever trust anyone again? It happened to me, and trusting isn't something I do easily now.

Until James came along. He's a work colleague too, but my issue is, I keep thinking he's playing another trick. You know, reeling me in, making me think he's a good bloke.

He's asked me to go out with him, and, although I should maybe get to know him a bit better first, I've said I'll go. I need to get back out there, live a little. And if I get hurt? Well, I'll just have to deal with it. Again.

But maybe he won't hurt me. Break my heart and all that. Please God.
