Description

This story is based on actual events. As the reader, it’s up to you to determine what is fact, and what is fabricated, for it will never be revealed, to protect those involved. You just may be surprised.

Gwen

Love. Who needs that? Who would want that? Who hasn’t had their heart split in two because they were never their first option, and damn sure their second. I have. But I stayed. Why did I stay? It was love. I wanted to finally feel that I was wanted. It didn’t matter if he thought I was worthless. It didn’t matter if he degraded me because he felt like it. Any love is better than no love . . . right?

Hawkins

Every day, I’m haunted and tormented. When I look in the mirror I see a failure. A failure that let people that needed me down. I worry that it will happen again. If it happens to the people I care about the most, I don’t think I could live with myself. Can I put my torturous past behind me and start to enjoy life? Especially now that I have a reason to live it?
