At age 30, publications editor Kelsie Taylor is slowly losing hope in finding her fairytale romance. The stories of the women around her who experience abuse and heartbreak along with her own experiences have made her cautious about entering a relationship. Her dream of finding forever love as a young adult is yet to actualize because none of the suitors she encountered so far have made a striking first impression. "I know that with Jamaican men I might have to kiss a few frogs before I find a prince but right now mi feel like a only frog deh here. Most of dem nuh worth more than a hi," she says to a man she only had brief, casual interactions over the past few weeks. He chuckles at her disclosure. "Yuh mean yuh just nuh kiss di right frog yet. And why yuh feel like yuh need a prince or a knight? You are no damsel in distress. You don't need saving." She shrugs at his observation, not sure how to respond. "You just need to get out of your way. I can bet you have written off men with a lot of potential with just one glance. But people are multilayered. You have to peel back the surface to get a better look at what's underneath before writing off a person," he adds. His advice might be just what she needs to guide her past the hurt she's witnessed and take the leap of faith to find true love. ⚠️Trigger warning: This story contains acts of violence and sexual abuse.

I have had my fair share of love, not the type you see in cartoons and movies instead being used, abused and manipulated just because I stood up for my basic human rights. How one could loose every bit of sense they had when infatuated with an individual is beyond me. It is described like the feeling of floating in the clouds, but that is just a tactic used to conceal revolting lies and escape the painful truth. Truth of hurt and unrequited feelings,and some call that love? Dat sound like coke. But at di end a di day a night, so sometimes yafi mek yuh owna fate. Even if it meant twisting the reality of others to feed your own selfish ego and losing trust in the people you once cared for. While bounded to metal bars, I,Jazariah Tindale looked back on the events which molded me, with no ounce of regret. Some aspects made me think..........bwoy what a gyal life salt, muss sea side me born, others oddly brought me joy while contradicting the morals i had for myself.
