Shattered Promises is about learning how to survive after the storm pulls you away. Everyone deserves a chance to be happy, it's finding the special one to stand by your side through the rain.
A loud banging causes me to jump up from an apparent sleep. I force my eyes open and glance around the room startled.
Who is knocking on my door at this hour of the night?
Throwing my arm across the mattress, I reach for my cell phone on the nightstand and squint my eyes at the bright green light that reads three in the morning.
Something’s wrong. I can feel it.
Forcing myself out of the bed, I hurry to find my housecoat and rush down the hall toward the living room. Unlocking the front door, I pull it open and find a frantic Parker standing before me.
He looks awful.
“What’s wrong?” I ask, suddenly feeling all sorts of panicked. He’s wearing khaki shorts and a button-down plaid shirt that has blood spotted all over. It’s everywhere.
“It’s Kade,” Parker says in between profound breaths. “Him and Owen…..they’ve been in an accident.”
An uneasy feeling rushes through my body as I stand here blankly staring at my best friend, holding onto the front of the door in shock.
An accident? Oh God…
“What do you mean they’ve been in an accident? You’re scaring me.”
Pushing past me, Parker runs his fingers through his messy brown hair as he paces the living room.
“It happened so fast. I….I thought Kade was dead. We…we’ve got to go. Please. We have to leave now,” he cries in a way I’ve never seen before. “Your parents are on their way over here to listen for the boys. We have to hurry.”
My heart rate instantly triplicates in speed, plummeting to the floor, making any wife’s worst nightmare become a reality.
“Kade,” I cry out in fear.
God, please don’t take my husband away from me.
Racing back toward my bedroom, I slam the door closed and stop beside the bed. Tears gush uncontrollably down my cheeks, the loud sobs coming from my throat startle me.
Please, I beg you. Keep my husband safe.
