What happens when you come home to your black girlfriend with a pregnancy kit with those dreadful red lines___Positive, a pregnancy he was well not responsible for? He walks out.

"I loved you. I loved you so much..."

Never looked back, never once stopped to listen to Rose. Just for an unforeseen tragedy to befall him, his family the very next day, Emily's death.
When he prayed and pleaded with God, prayed like he never have just for her to die midst his prayer in his arms, he blamed God.

"My prayers didn't save Em. Why should I continue?"

He stopped praying.
He stopped serving God.
He blamed God for all his shortcomings.

Six years later, he bumped into Michelle, Rose's daughter. Dreaded the moment he knew she belonged to Rose 'cause he loved the little girl at first glance.

His surpassed anger and rage resurfaced at the sight of Rose.
Rose was grateful to have run into him.

She never stopped praying for him.
She never stopped loving him.

That night when Elle called his phone, he knew his life was about to take a massive turn.
Not only did the devil come to tear his world apart but to rip his soul out of his body.
And God sent Rose to his rescue.
His Rose.
His starlight.

Not until then did he realise, God never gave up on Him. Everything happened to him for a reason.
He never left his side, God was with him every step of the way.

He crawled his way back to God and was saved.

But it was just a matter of time before a serendipitous series of events interweaved, sketched and painted her fate into his. Their bland and irrelevant conversations became soulful. In their secret meetings, they shared their woes, the aches in their hearts, the most fatal of their flaws, their greatest victories and soon, the flutter that had began in the core of their beings. There was comfort in being together and a calm that grips their souls in the presence of each other. It took little courage, many inhalations and exhalations of air and break out of cold sweat for Yusuf to confess his feelings, reveal their relationship and lay down his intention to tie the knot with his friend's younger sister, Amatullah. In their marital life, they rebirth, reformed and evolved. This profound feeling brought luminance to their souls and they reflected on each other like the brilliance of a thousand stars.

And their relationship was affected. Everything he did to save them proofed to be futile. Their once bright sky had become be-darkened with grief.

Love is strange. It exists in many forms and is one of the key components that makes humans happy, but there isn't a lot of understanding surrounding it. At least not the kind of understanding with which the average person identifies. Agnes is one of the few people that can accept all kinds of love. Despite her dated name, she is a woman in her late 20's dealing with the death of most of her family. She's now stuck in the middle of figuring out how to raise children that she never saw in her future and deciding what love means for her, when it has to exist within layer upon layer of complication. She let go of her boyfriend after almost a decade because their love wasn't meant to exist under the strain of children, only to find herself confronted with the overpowering connection of her old high school sweetheart. The same man she ran away from because their values hardly aligned when it came to how love should be expressed long term. Within the midst of learning how to raise children and balance her ever-building career, Agnes tries to recover from her mother's death, seek comfort without complicating her circumstance, and figure out why her mother would name her Agnes. Finding real comfort starts to feel impossible, as her most available options are her ex-boyfriend and her assistant. Completed! Rejected 6 times** "This one just isn't for us." By far the most plain rejection I have ever received and I can respect it. 1/22/2022 - 1K 9/28/2022 - 10K

I ask while highly aware that he's backed me up against my car. "Hmm..." He trails off as his arms rest on either side of my body. He steps closer until our lips are just a breath away and my heart starts to race in anticipation. "Your gorgeous eyes that take my breath away...your sweet smile that can bring me to my knees...your touch that drives me crazy -" "Theo..." I shake my head as a fierce blush heats my cheeks. He leans in and pulls me against him by my waist. I release a shaky breath when the need to kiss him becomes overwhelming. "I could go on forever darlin." Unable to help myself I press my lips to his. He groans huskily before tangling his fingers in my hair. I hesitantly bite down on his bottom lip before soothing the sting. His reaction is instant as he hoists me up onto his waist. My back hits my car door as I wrap my legs around his waist. "Get some brother!"

33 parts Complete Mature
Sixteen years ago, my sisters and I moved from France to the United States to live the American dream. Not long after, I met Declan, a marine who was home for his mother's funeral. He was my everything, my world, and the love of my life. Four and a half years later, I became his fiancée. Then, when I thought everything was going well, my world ended when I awoke to him gone. No note, no nothing. He was just gone. I waited days, weeks, and months to hear from him and for his return. That never happened. Then, I met Chadwick, who took the pieces of my broken heart and put them back together. He promised me many things during our dating years, guaranteeing he'd give me the world. And he was. Then, after years of not wanting to give my entire heart to him, fearing he'd do what Declan had done, I pushed the fear of him leaving me aside and married him. The night we married, instead of giving me the world he promised, I was gifted a nightmare. For over six years, I lived in a lake of fire. If I wasn't locked in a dark, cold room for days on end, day and night, I was tormented, punished, abused, and tortured in the blackest darkness until I could no longer see, talk, or move. Maltreating me until he broke me. Finally, one of my prayers was answered when an ally close to Chadwick helped me escape the prison of hell. She flew me out of New York and brought me to her friend's home in Mobile, Alabama, where I got the shock of my life. He wasn't just her "friend." He was a ghost from my past, and now I'm in his care. Oh, and he has a child nearly as old as our breakup.
