Find out as we take on this journey of love, betrayal, hurt, and falling again
PS: I love Romance, but the pains that come with it scare me. Or does this scare you too or am I OYO? (OYO means "on your own" is a Nigerian slang loosely translated to "You are alone". There will be more of it in this story, as I'm too Nigerian not to use it. But I'm promising to always interpret.
Reach out to me as you read this story, tell me, what you think about it, I'm not Beyond Reach😜
*Could you ever love a broken person?*
"I understand that you're broken," he said as he lifted her chin so she stared directly into his eyes. "But I want you to understand that it is my job to restore the happiness you lost. I am your husband now, Afrah. And it is my responsibility to make you happy. So that is my mission from now until the end of time."
Afrah stared down at her hands, feeling as though her soul was being wrenched from her body. She couldn't look him in the eye. Not after what she had gone through. Not when she still saw the devil in his eyes.

It is said that the most painful wounds leave the deepest scars. No one could attest to that more than Afrah Aminu. For eleven years she's kept a secret to herself, knowing that she might never be able to tell anyone.
Not that she wanted to.
But now, with the sudden arrival of a strange man in her life, she finds herself thrown into the terrifying situation of having to relive it all. As he tears down each and every wall she has set up around her heart, the memories of that haunting night come crashing in waves.
Will she be able to survive it? Or will she be crushed underneath its weight?
