Unseen Grace

**

In the small town of Harmonyville, young Talia Hope Mitchell, at the tender age of six, found herself caught in the discordant notes of her family's life. The Harmony of Grace Church, where her grandparents took her every Sunday, seemed a stark contrast to the tumultuous household she lived in.

Talia's aunt and uncle, mere teenagers themselves, wrestled with the challenges of newfound responsibilities. Sibling squabbles echoed through the walls of their modest home, forming a dissonance that seemed to drown out the harmonious messages preached at the church.

Yet, it wasn't just the familial discord that tugged at Talia's heart; it was the unspoken absence of her parents. Her dad, a distant figure in Austria, and her mom, a fleeting memory, left a void that not even the most spirited hymns could fill.

In the midst of this familial turbulence, Talia sought refuge in the seemingly quiet corners of her world. The innocence of childhood led her to occasional misdeeds, pilfering small treasures from her aunt's belongings-a desperate attempt to grasp something of her own in a world that felt fleeting and uncertain.

As we embark on Talia's journey, we witness a young soul grappling with the dissonance between the teachings of faith and the discord of her reality. The stolen moments, both literal and metaphorical, paint the canvas of her early years, setting the stage for a poignant exploration of grace and redemption....
