When did our friendship shift from being purely platonic? From the moment we first met, I regarded her like a younger sibling, someone who relied on my care. But over time, she blossomed into a woman, and now every glance at her stirs a deep desire within me - a longing to claim her, to be more than just friends. Yet, I cannot ignore the fact that she's also my trusted guardian, a professional connection I cannot compromise. I firmly believe in keeping personal and professional boundaries, so I must resist these growing feelings.
