Crossroads

REWRITING, SLOW UPDATES
"We are like crossroads. Our paths connected for a short time before diverging and were never meant to meet again." He demonstrated with his arms, intersecting them and pulling them apart. "But, if the trainmaster wills it," He gently grasped her hand and guided her to follow his lead. Their hands separated and spread out before curving back towards each other until their fingers were entwined. "Those roads might join together once more and continue onward as one."

Peter Derwin is a business man, professional yet flirtatious, who does not shy away from women. Alice Bernett is an aspiring writer, filled with passion and joy and imagination, who's looking for someone just like her.

When Peter Derwin catches her attention as a kind-hearted gentleman who shares her love of stories, Alice cannot help but grow fond of him. Very soon, Peter finds himself falling for her beauty and appearance rather than her soul. Maybe their love wasn't real, or maybe it was. But no matter the case, they both believed it to be, and that was good enough for them.

Tragedy strikes, and when Alice turns to Peter, she finds he didn't truly care at all for her well being. Instead, he was madly in love with her outside person, but did not have the heart to see in.
Through heartbreak and change, realization and forgiveness, the two's tracks meet once more, but this time they join forever.

A story of a man and a woman's love that is forbidden due to ties to their other partners, but life always seems to find a way.

Romance, drama, family.
