She wants me. But she won’t call me. Until the fire that sets her life ablaze. There’s isn’t much I won’t do for her after she clung to me in the aftermath of an inferno neither of us were prepared for. Tick. Tick. Tick. Love is a Time Bomb but we have a lifetime to explore and ignite our flames. We hope.
