Crumbling Walls - Laura Strandt - Bog

Emily

I had a good life… a safe life…a quiet life…
I had a place to live and food to eat and a bed to sleep in…
Books to read, paper to draw on and a friend who didn't mind when I wouldn't answer questions…
I didn't realize I also had a hole in my heart and a void in my soul…
Until I met Jack…
He ran headlong into my walls and broke through them, crumbling them to the ground, seeing the real me and choosing to stay by my side.

Jack

I had a great life… a loud life… a different life…
I lived with my parents and five brothers in a new house in a new neighborhood in a new town…
I spent hours on my bike, riding miles at a time…
Or, I did, until a quiet girl sitting on her front porch brought me to a screeching halt…
And I found something and someone I never knew I needed in the first place...

Her name is Emily and she makes me whole.

A boy on his bike, a girl on her porch...
Not all stories start so simply, but the story of Jack and Emily does.
