Hope
As a teen, I fell in love with my best friend's older brother.
We made promises to each other and solidified them with marriage and a baby.
He broke his promise ...
I didn't.
Our promises were meant to be everlasting. Or so I thought.
I was wrong.
Now, I'm raising our son alone and I'm too broken to be everything he needs.

I never expected to feel this way again.
Before I realize what's happening, I'm breaking my promise of forever to my husband and wishing for a future with another man.
