Marcus promised Jasmine forever. And now that he is gone, she finds that it is easier just to numb her emotions than face the reality. She understands people follow proper etiquette to offer her some words of comfort or sympathy; however, to her, every single word they say to her is a cruel reminder of her beloved Marcus’ eternal absence. She has been avoiding gatherings, declining visitors, and steering clear of condolences sent her way because she refuses to reminisce about their beautiful life. For her, it is too precious to become just a memory.
Marcus' big brother Alexander, whose existence she has no knowledge of, walks into her life and becomes her safe haven. Can she extricate herself from her desolation and fall in love again?
Why I love you
* Title is Inspired by Sixteen Reasons (why I love you) by Bill and Doree Post
She knows he went in peace because he gave her hands a small squeeze, and a contented smile appeared on his face before he took his last breath. At that very moment, her heart started beating violently, as if it were trying to beat for him. And she could not breathe, as if his last breath were also hers.
