•To love is to receive a glimpse of heaven• Promise Keshan doesn't want to think. Not about her mother's suicide or the four men who violated her that night when she was just a little girl or Jiho, who left her without a word right when she needed him most, or her pseudo-acquaintance who tells her hushed lunchtime stories of a normal world she feels she doesn't deserve to take part in. So she self destructs to destroy her heart and builds big stone walls to guard what little is left of it. Promise isn't a heroine. Isn't a villain. She's just a girl, trying to find a way to heal again. WARNING: This story contains copious amounts of sex, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and action, domestic abuse, themes of mental illness including but not limited to depression and anxiety, mild violence, and brief mentions of rape and mild drug use.
