A gap can be many things: a break, disparity, lack of balance, space between two people or things.  Whatever the meaning, it could apply to Eliza Jane Kerr.  

She wasn't looking for a time-out from her 'real' life, but she doesn't mind a short respite to make new goals, and to refine old ones.  When an unexpected visit home turns into a complete change of circumstance, she finds her goals no longer matter.  

Stepping away from a promising career, or at least taking a break from one, Eliza shows she's up to the challenges that come with her newly acquired responsibilities.  

With humor, love, and big dose of perseverance, she lays a foundation for the life she will live.  

---
A/N: If you came in search of a story about a lost weak girl looking for a tall, dark, handsome man to protect her, then you are in the wrong place. I promise this is not a tale of a defenseless woman that needs someone to save her. She's just taking the mantle and starting over, with her positive attitude and self-esteem still firmly in place.

My Ex - Crush by thefadedwhite

"I wish I had never met you!" Deepika's voice echoed across the classroom, each word a dagger to my heart. "Excellent! At least we finally agree on something!" I fired back, even as a tear betrayed the storm of emotions within me. With those final, stinging words, Deepika stormed out, leaving a heavy silence in her wake. The classroom felt like a graveyard, and I stood there, rooted to the spot, desperately wishing I could chase after her and demand the truth. Maybe letting her go was the right choice. Perhaps this is meant to be my unfinished love story, a tale of what-ifs and almosts... ✨ No Deepika. This can't be his bike. Not Arjun's. But I couldn't deny what I saw-the familiar brown Royal Enfield, now twisted and crushed. My heart hammered as I circled around, hoping, praying it wasn't true, until my gaze landed on the number plate: TN56 0809. Arjun's bike. Deepika! Stop imagining things! Arjun would be fine! I felt the world shift, the noise around me blurring into a single, deafening hum. Ambulance and police sirens echoed, and a stranger's voice broke through: "Two boys. Spot dead. College students." I clutched my chest, gasping for air as reality slammed into me. "Arjun..." I whispered, barely holding myself together. Tears stung my face as I sank beside the wreck. "No, Please, No!" My voice cracked as the weight of regret settled in, suffocating me. ✨ Ex-Crush: More than just a crush, but a little less than love. ✨ Arjun and Deepika were hopelessly in love-only they never realized it. Will they find their way to each other, or will their love story remain forever unfinished? ✨ Join Arjun and Deepika on a journey back to those dreamy college days-days where every moment felt eternal, love was unspoken yet ever present, where friendship bloomed like wildflowers, offering a sanctuary from the harsh winds of reality. Come, wander with them through the corridors of college days, where the echoes of laughter still linger.
