#CharDawn Under the pouring rain, with her bones trembling, body shivering, she stood with her father and listened with great curiosity. "This is just a place you know. A visit. A pass through." Her forehead creased in bewilderment, without knowing what he meant about it. The rain poured along with the wind, drenching her clothes, almost sweeping the umbrella she held. Then she thought about the possibilities that were ahead of her including the doors of opportunities that were waiting for her to be unlocked but she sighed in defeat knowing that she would never get a straight answer from her father. And so she decided to turn around still holding the umbrella tightly around her hand to walk towards the house and have a rest. It was an excruciating day and she was too sick of his riddles but she was brought to stop when he suddenly said, "Nobody stays here. If you can leave, you will leave."

have you heard the sound that the heart makes, when it breaks?

Richard only had one wish, to be with his wife, Anne. But she left for another man. Devoured by heartache and misery, he had no choice but to come back and relive his former life, to associate himself with his dysfunctional family one more time and become the man he tried to escape from the past. A life filled with greed, lust, fraudulence and torment. Cravings for death and vengeance surrounded him again. Violent exultations from incongruous infidelities and endless betrayals had been sinfully explored. "You say you love them?" "Yes." "And you say you want them happy because you love them?" It wasn't a question. "Of course I do." "What if their happiness means you have to let go?"

Their daughter is getting married and she's gifting them with a second chance. Will they make it work?
