Can it be true? The message says she’s alive!

Bruce had a secret, a skeleton in his closet. Thirty years ago he buried it in there and put a table right in front of the door so no one would ever open it. Suddenly, just as he was about to begin a new chapter in his life, it came back to haunt him.

In college, Bruce made a choice that changed him forever. It wasn’t something you could see by looking at him, but it lived inside, at home where all those dirty little secrets were buried. Every day since, he struggled with his conscience. He was damaged, broken. It was his brain storm, the thoughts about what he’d done, that kept him stuck and prevented him from living fully.

Because of his mistakes, Bruce never fell in love, got married, or had children. And then came Bella. From the moment he saw her, he began to transform. They became a pair, a matched set. When he finally summoned the courage to tell her his secret, he was surprised at her suggestion to bring his past back to life in order to give it a proper burial. Only then could he be resurrected.
