Living in fear
Cindy got older and from time to time she would always look back on that night and get the shivers. It made her very uncomfortable just to think about it, and it was turning her into a nervous wreck. She would often have to check her house several times over to make sure everything was locked.
It would affect her relationships as well, she wouldn’t be able to let people come close to her because she didn’t trust them at all. She wasn’t aware of how she was behaving at the time, but this little episode she had as a child was seriously doing damage to her well-being.
