47 parts Complete Mature
Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K

A Story of Loss, Love, and the Light That Follows Darkness. Prologue The night the world ended, Sophia Lewis sat in her father's old armchair, gripping his worn-out leather jacket like it was a life raft. The funeral had been quiet-too quiet. The kind of quiet that suffocated. The kind that told her everything had changed. Her father, the man who had taught her how to fix a car, how to make the perfect cup of coffee, how to laugh even when the world was cruel, was gone. And with him, he had taken a piece of her. For months, Sophia wandered through life like a ghost in her own skin. Her friends faded away. Her dreams no longer seemed worth chasing. The world kept moving, but she was stuck-frozen in grief. Until he showed up.
