Two people. One apartment. The conversation they've been avoiding for years.
A story about Black love, inherited pain, and the terrifying courage it takes to stay.

"Say Yes" — Chris Echols
Chapter One
Opening Lines
"The hardest part of love isn't falling —
it's choosing to stay when every cell in your body
is screaming at you to run."
Marcus and Keisha haven't spoken in eleven days.
Not because they don't love each other —
but because they finally have the apartment to themselves,
and the silence between them is louder than the city outside.
