Cassie’s Scar

When she was a child, Cassie received a scar on her back from spilling boiling water while trying to make dinner on her own. She shows the scar to few people, and only one of her subscribers on OnlyFans ever saw it. Cassie’s scar is in many ways a symbol of her past, which emotionally scars her into adulthood. She got the scar because no adult was home to make her dinner, and thus it symbolizes her neglect as a child. Like her past, her scar is something that Cassie tries to keep hidden; therefore, she feels vulnerable when Aiden accidentally catches a glimpse of it on OnlyFans. This scar also bonds Cassie and Aiden, who at this time only know each other as Cici and A, as both scars come from what they see as embarrassing cooking accidents. Cici and A grow closer together the more they learn what they have in common, such as their shared loneliness.

Though the shared scars bring them together, Cassie’s scar also keeps them apart as her scar is a marker of her true identity. Cassie struggles to not let Aiden see her back as they begin their relationship. This physical struggle mirrors her emotional struggle as she hides a big part of her history and her shared history with Aiden.
