What would you do if an old lady needed serious help and you were the only person around?
Outside work, Hope, a school teacher does everything she can to avoid human contact. She leaves home early, returns late and does not see a soul from her neighbourhood. She likes it that way. It's the only way she knows to keep from falling apart. One day she meets a stranger at the bus stop and her whole world changes.
This is contemporary fiction about relationships - not the romance kind like amour or a fairy tale. These stories are about the everyday trials and troubles of someone who does everything she can to avoid getting hurt, especially by family. But, family are not always our blood relatives, right?
Strangers, neighbours and a sister come pounding on Hope's door. Will she let them in?
Relationships are hard. Everyone wants something from you all the time. They always fall apart and you're left alone trying to piece your heart back together.
But what is life without relationships? Safe. Less exhausting. Lonely. What should Hope do? Let's follow her journey and find out.
Grace Weather narrates Hope's story as an ongoing series of short stories.
