My Neighbor Said “Why Do You Keep Avoiding Me” I Said “Because Looking At You Hurts”

My neighbor blocked my way at the mailboxes and demanded, “Why do you keep avoiding me, Nathan?” I finally told her the truth: “Because looking at you hurts.”

Nathan, a haunted paramedic, has spent three years blaming himself for the death of an 8-year-old girl… and six months secretly avoiding the girl’s grieving mother who just moved in next door. Melissa knows more about him than he realizes, and when she confronts him, the truth about that rain-soaked night on Highway 29 finally breaks free.

This emotional first-person romantic audio story is about grief, guilt, healing, and two broken people who discover that sometimes the person who hurts to look at is the person you need most to heal. If you like slow-burn neighbors-to-lovers, emotional confession scenes, and soft second chances after tragedy, this story is for you.

🎧 Put on your headphones, close your eyes, and let this heartfelt love story play like a movie in your mind.
