Synopsis:

I remember once, when I was younger in elementary, our class had to play this ice breaker game which involved each one of us sharing one of our greatest fears and one of our favorite hobbies. Up to this day, I still remember what I answered - perhaps because my answers never really changed. 
This was what I said, “I am terrified of the feeling of falling and I love swimming.”

What I didn't know then was that I would one day have to experience the feeling of doing both all at once. Only, it wasn't by choice. 
No, it was a result of trying to stop someone from jumping off the cliff.
But instead, we both fell.
Like a pair of dominoes.

~.~.~

When Marilyn Evans (aka Lyn) made the impulsive decision to save Luke Smith’s life, she never thought her life could get any more complicated than it already was. Not only was she the reason for Luke to be breathing and alive, she also happened to be the partial reason why he fell in the first place.

Now, with Luke’s two years worth of memory wiped temporarily clean from him, he has asked Lyn to help him recover pieces of his past and hopefully, by the time he got back his memory, he wouldn’t feel as compelled to jump off a cliff. 

She thought she was helping him remember but it turned out that she herself has memories to turn back to. Together, they faced the past they were originally adamant to bury. 

And maybe, together, they’ll face their future.

"Well when people keep saying it you start to believe it" "Well your not ok, and we're gonna prove it" I'm angry now.

John knows how the game ends Say, what part of her isn't worth it? Dirtying your fingers in white, like her dress and her words, or like her silky, silky fingers weaving worlds of tender pleas. And she pleads and pleads, fistfuls of sapphires in those eyes, that sharp voice like a medicine. Like a fallen Queen, the best you can do is claim the place by her side. She wasn't spitting lies at you; none of this was a lie, a ploy, an excuse. It's good enough for you. Like a disregarded Queen, you don't get to hold her power in your hand, but she holds your hand like it is the work of God. You reach the dead end of insanity but there's nothing ahead. There's this girl; she's deranged, just like you. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Lisa knows how the game starts. But there's a catch; you'll find it's extremely hard to play without being aware of the rules. You'll find that, if there are rules, John doesn't play by any of them. Lisa doesn't think that man even listens to himself. One simple thing they taught her: a game is a game so long as the opponent stands a chance. Here, that's Utopia. Between a human and a toy, the line is all too blurred, hardly real, like the gentle humming of a mother in the next room of your memory. A predator lures its prey directly in its fauces and throat, just as John Carter can be an undeniably good captor. Not necessarily merciful. Not really. Not ever. But he's good, he's kind. Brave. Beautiful. The man he pretends to be is. You reach the end of the abyss but there's nothing ahead. There's this boy;he's empty just like you

𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐕𝐘 𝐒𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐀𝐋 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐓! 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐂𝐄𝐄𝐃 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐂𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍. 𝗖𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱. For five years, I was caged-locked in a life I couldn't escape, a nightmare I couldn't wake up from. At an age when I should have been dancing under the stars, laughing with friends, living recklessly-I was caged. A life wasted on pain, drowned in tears. A hollow existence, a nightmare I couldn't wake up from. But I ran. And now I'm here. Safe. Loved. No longer just surviving-but living. Wrapped in the warmth of friendship, held in his arms. And for the first time in years, I feel whole. But peace never lasts, does it? Because soon, I will have to choose. Between the man I love and the darkness I escaped. Between a future filled with love and a past that refuses to let me go. What will I do when the nightmare comes knocking again? What will I choose? *** 𝗨𝗻𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱. I have everything-money, success, power. Women want me, men envy me. I move through life with ease, collecting victories like trophies. And yet, something is missing. Someone is missing. Then she walks in. She doesn't try to impress me. She doesn't need to. Just by existing, she undoes me. She is fire and shadows, warmth and distance. She steals my breath and doesn't even realize it. But she is guarded, locked behind walls so high I wonder if anyone has ever climbed them. No matter how much I try, how patient I am, she keeps her past buried. Until one night. One unexpected night changes everything. Because someone from her past walks back into her life. And in an instant, our present starts to unravel, our future hanging by a thread. And suddenly, I understand. This isn't just about her choosing me. It's about whether I will stay when the truth finally comes out. Will I? ℝ𝔼ℙ𝕌𝔹𝕃𝕀𝕊ℍ𝔼𝔻!
