Welcome to Litsy!

Christmas is the season of second chances. I'm not the same guy I was growing up, but I have some apologies to make for being him. My fifteen-year high school reunion reminds me of my biggest regret. Walking away from the love of my life to chase my career. By doing so, I fell in love with another woman, had a little boy, and life mended itself. Until my wife passed away. Love can suck it. I'm not interested anymore. And yet the minute I see my childhood sweetheart at our reunion, the ice melts inside my chest. But she hates my guts for leaving her without a goodbye when we were kids, and I can't blame her. An unexpected chain of events has her in an accident and without her memory for a short time. As much as I hate myself for doing it, I tell her she watches my son and works for me. I just need time to help her remember how much we loved each other. It's not right, but she's always been mine. I can't keep up the lie forever, but before I reveal what I've done, maybe she'll see the man I am today. Different. Strong. Completely in love with her. Or maybe she'll recognize the truth. I haven't changed at all.Every Good Girl Deserves a Bad Boy. ~ Weston
