I, Aniyla Thompson believes, Everyone has something cruel that has badly affected them in life, including me. In my life I have lived through or have at least tried to live through some malicious forces trying to destroy me during; my childhood, teen years, and adult life. Including the death of my mother in my past and now a crazed stalker out to get me. In the beginning I let the casualty of my tainted past destroy me from the inside out. I found myself shackled to my past preventing me from having a viable future with my son Aiden and the love of my life Jaylen. It actually feels like I'm drowning in my past that is until I finally realized it is not the casualty but what we make out of it in life that defines us. I just hoped I didn't learn this lesson too late, in turn pushing Jaylen into another woman's waiting arms. Can I crawl out of my past in time for Jaylen and I to have a future together with my son? Will my stalker be caught before he is able to kill my son and I? And is Jaylen going to return to Aiden and I once he follows his heart overseas?
