Page 7 of Words I Couldn't Say
The End.
That’s when I got what Tawni had meant. This was huge. This was going to be the biggest challenge of my life. I would do Abigail the justice she deserved. I just hoped I could succeed. Because, in all reality, I was the Trevor in this situation.
You see, Trevor was an idiot. He had the beautiful Abigail, the love of his life, and when things became tough, he pushed her away. It wasn’t until she reappeared in his life that he realized she was it for him and he’d do anything to win back her love. Neither of them had known how limited their time together would be, and that made their separation that much harder to take.
For years, my heart had longed for Tucker, but reading this book finally made me shed the wool from my eyes. This beautiful, haunting story taught a lesson so many of us have learned the hard way. When you love something, you don’t push it away. You don’t let it go. You hold on for dear life because we never know when that life will end.
This book might have been my big break. But, more importantly, it gave me perspective. I knew what I had to do. What I wanted to do. On screen, I’d play Abigail. But, in real life? I’d be Trevor and do whatever the hell I had to do to win the love of my life back.
Because, if my days were numbered, and all of ours are, I didn’t want to live another moment without Tucker by my side. I just had to convince him of that.
Fortunately, T.A. Bankman was like my own personal cupid and guardian angel all rolled into one. He couldn’t have chosen a more perfect setting than Cincinnati for me to play out my own personal love story.
The words from Trevor’s letter kept rolling around in my mind. It was so achingly familiar, yet I couldn’t place them. I had no idea why I felt that way, but I knew, without a shadow of a doubt, I was meant for this role.
This role was meant for me.
