Short Story Press Presents Grave Silence

They were happy once and everything was perfect. A man and a woman and a little girl. Lots of money and an American dream life. Jake was an actor, Jane was a nurse, and Sara, their little girl, was nothing short of perfect. For years, they were a happy family, until reality came crashing down. Jake tried his best to raise Sara after her mother left; but she was destined to fall into her mother's footsteps and follow her way of life. You never realize how much you have, until it is gone. Jake tries to move on, after they left him; but finds it impossible to see the sunshine any more. Listen as Jake recounts his best memories with the girls and tries his hardest to have a second chance at their life together. But is it too late, and has it been too long? Others think he's crazy for trying to relive a memory; but he has never let go of the life and love they wants shared. This story speaks to anyone who has ever loved, and lost, in many different ways. Are you crazy to not let go; even years later? Does Jake realize that he can never have it back, that they have left for good or will he continue to try, all while being alone? Short Story Press publishes short stories written by everyday writers.
