No, he wasn't just looking at me, he saw right through me . "You're not. You are far from being 'fine'. And it's okay, you go do your thing pretending to be fine. But i'm not going anywhere. I'm staying. I am going to take care of you." And just like that, my strength crumbled. Meet Jean : She's far from any normal teenager. Her childhood being anything but normal. Right from the age of four, she stepped in as the mediator between her parent's fights. As years passed, she sacrificed her childhood to take care of her siblings, making sure they never had to see any of what she went through. And now at the age of eighteen, under all the pretence being "fine" she feels an emptiness. She's losing her strength to keep it together, desperate for love. Enter Travis : Travis and Jean have been childhood friends. But Travis and his family moved away when Travis was 12. He's the most fun- loving and adventerous guy. None of his days go without taking risks. But when re turns to Cantorville, nothing is the same. Can he bring the old Jean back? Or is it too late? Especially with danger right around the corner..
