But what happens when fate weaves their paths together again after five long years? Will she be willing to risk her heart once more, or will the scars of the past keep her from taking that chance? As the story unfolds, she discovers that people can change, and Tyrone is no exception. Can she find it in herself to forgive and open her heart to love again, or will past pains keep them apart forever? In this poignant tale of love's twists and turns, she must confront her own vulnerabilities and decide if love is worth fighting for, even if it comes at a great risk.

Devoted To You

My heart felt heavy, and I wanted to cry out of frustration. This was the fourth day Tyrone hadn't shown up at school or work. Ever since that day we spoke at the hospital, he disappeared without a trace. Our plans to talk were always postponed because he was always absent. 


"Maybe he's not going to pursue you anymore," a voice in my head said, but I quickly dismissed it. No, I knew Tyrone was patient, and even if that were true, I couldn't help but let out a sigh. 


"The weather is scorching today, and yet you seem to be in a gloomy mood," Rye said, sitting beside me. I rolled my eyes at him. 


"Tyrone still hasn't shown up. I'm worried there might be a problem," I said, resting my head on the table with my arm as a makeshift pillow. 


"Are you saying he's avoiding you? Hmp! That's why I bumped into him at the lobby earlier!" Rye exclaimed, and I froze. What?! So, he's been on campus all this time, deliberately hiding from me. I couldn't help but feel angry.
