The Long Way Home
The warm embrace of fated love.
May and Ken were inseparable once - two teenagers on a Cape Coast wall, sure the whole world was waiting for them. Then Ken left for Legon without saying goodbye, and May built a life without him: marriage, a daughter, a decade of quiet grief after losing her husband too soon.
Twenty years later, a school reunion brings them back to the same room. Ken is divorced, still writing songs he never finishes, still carrying a letter he wrote the night he left - the one May never read until now. May isn't the girl on the wall anymore. But something in her hasn't stopped waiting.
What follows is a second-chance romance about the versions of ourselves we outgrow, the ones we don't, and the people who loved us through both. Across Cape Coast beaches, quiet phone calls, and the families they're each still healing, May and Ken have to decide whether the timing that failed them once can still be rewritten - one honest conversation at a time.
For anyone who believes some loves just take the long way home.
