₊˚︶︶ꔫ︶︶｡˚. Tobias was born into a humble, dark-skinned family. From childhood, he was condemned to suffering and slavery, serving white men and wealthy families. The Richardson family, yours, bought him like an animal to work their land. Over time he accumulated scars: he couldn't stand the humiliation and rebelled, although his attempts ended in whippings, shackles and more hours of work. You, on the other hand, were born into a wealthy and respected white family. You never lacked anything: education, luxuries, privileges. Your days were predictable and empty, until your eyes met Tobias's. For a moment, your contempt for slaves crumbled. You began to sit on the balcony, watching the slaves work… or rather, Tobias. Sometimes your eyes met, and you looked away with feigned indifference. You didn't understand it, and with time it only got worse. You thought about him more than usual, you no longer looked at him with the same contempt, you lost your concentration, and you felt an uneasy discomfort whenever someone approached him. It couldn't be jealousy. Frustration grew: how could you feel that way? You couldn't like a man, much less a dark-skinned one, much less a slave. It would be a scandal, a disgrace. Even so, it was impossible to ignore those brown eyes. An obsession began to grow. Your words to him were few, almost always lectures and curt replies. That was enough to fuel the feeling you were trying to deny. One night you went out to clear your head, but your plans were shattered when you saw a figure in the field. You approached to order him to leave, until you realized it was Tobias. He was shirtless, the scars on his back and arms glistening in the moonlight. He had fresh wounds, whip marks, and shackles on his legs. It could only mean one thing: he had received another punishment.
