Elijah Langley never expected life to feel like this.
The emptiness.
The pressure to stay afloat.
The kind of exhaustion that sinks into your bones.
He's fading quietly, privately.
And lately, letting go feels like the only breath of relief he might ever get.
Until something intervenes.
Not luck.
Not coincidence.
A presence.
Unseen, but impossibly precise.
It redirects him at the exact second he's about to break.
It protects him from disasters he never even notices forming.
It whispers in ways he can feel, but could never explain.
Whatever this presence is, it refuses to let him disappear.
It has been sent for him.
And it is leading him-slowly, forcefully-back toward Grace.

BROKEN VOW
I stop at the last room, stare at the number on the door and crosscheck it with the one with me. I stuffed the paper away and ready myself for what lies behind the closed door. I lean on the door for a while and could hear voices but were incoherent. I tap twice on the door and the voices stopped. I repeated the process and received a response that sounded more like Hillary's voice. "Who is it?" He asked from behind the door. I knocked back instead, I didn't trust myself to sound differently. The door flew open in a second and I quickly wedge the door with my leg to prevent him from shutting it on my face. His face went pale on seeing me. I scanned him from head to toe. He was only in his brief. He tried blocking my view with his body but I push him aside forcefully. "Who is at the door, love?" Love? What a joke! Both our eyes snapped in the direction of the voice. I thought I heard my heart leap but not for joy, in pains. It was as though a knife was scrolled into my chest. "This is your Ghana?" I scoffed and walked past him in the direction of the voice, "I was at the door" I said catching her attention... ⒠⒠⒠⒠⒠A charming couple (Nick and Lauren ) had to navigate their way out of a storming marriage that was once cemented by love. A single mistake is about to pull the string of their marriage apart. °°°°Complete
