She is a void. Her depression turns her into a being she wasn’t meant to be. He is another hopeless victim falling prey. Her own demise is inevitable, and any who dare to fight the beast are signing themselves up to be brought down with her. She views her disease as the beast of her life, and is torn between seeing it as one who has captured her, or one who dwells within her. She’d rather not cause any other human pain, so she lets beast take over. Her own thoughts fight her, her own wants are lost in her darkness, and trying and giving up are a constant battle. The beast will win, she’s sure. He is determined. He sees her. He sees her pain, and her light. Every time she pushes him away, she keeps a piece of him. He loves her, inexplicably. She gives and takes, but will one ever outweigh the other? She's convinced that there’s nothing anyone can do. He holds on because he knows that the severity of her unbalanced turmoil within can’t withstand forever. He has to be there when it collapses. Is the beast doomed to devour anyone in its path…or will its destruction leave it starving, with no other choice but to consume itself? As the cliché goes…even here, now, in this disgusting world, is it possible for love conquer the darkest of demons?

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
