Didn't We Say Forever? - Meng Laikyn

Sometimes we don't get a say in what love we fall victim to; we have to trust that it is true.

"I Promise."

We vowed forever too many times that over the last two years, the word faded meaning.

Our adolescent heartbeats reached a fatal foretelling from life's cruel realities.

Harper, a carelessly wounded spirit, is struck with blinding devastation. After Shaymus, her high school boyfriend abandons her for a fresh start at college. Countless therapies and remote rehabilitation can't make the ache in her bones gain relief. Adding insult to injury, the broken pulse inside her chest chains her to an unforgettable past.

Uncensored and sleazy, Shaymus has been avoiding his mistakes. Hoping they will catch flame, just like his heart used to do when his eyes found hers. He feels every slash of her struggle. A pain he etched into the wobble of her hips, pushing him back into the depths of his betrayal.

What's hers is mine, even our pain.

Healing comes when forgiveness and love is the only option for surviving.

A searing heartbreak, ruthlessly emotional, leads us to discover this young couples scars.
