I thought I had missed love when I was 58. Then Oliver showed up, and my heart skipped a beat. Rebecca, his ex-wife, was out to ruin our happiness and put our potential relationship at risk.
There was a fight for peace and the courage to face the past. Could love win over everything?
I was used to being alone because I found comfort in writing and the peace of my home by the ocean. But when Oliver showed up, everything changed.
We became friends after meeting by chance and realising we both loved writing. I felt like I was alive again.
But Rebecca’s sudden appearance messed up our relationship, which was just starting to grow.
Oliver’s reluctance to address her and her mean behaviour made me feel weak and unimportant. I wasn’t sure if I was ready for all of this drama.
Even though I had doubts, I couldn’t get rid of the feeling that Oliver and I had something special in common. I chose to talk to him about his past and tell him he needs to stand up to Rebecca.
That’s when I saw a different side of Oliver: strong and driven. He told Rebecca to leave him alone and finally took charge of his life. I decided it was worth it to fight for him.
It wasn’t always easy, but our love story showed me that you have to face the past in order to welcome the future. Oliver and I had a second chance to fall in love, and we were set on making it last.
