 🌊 Episode 15 – The Keeper’s Legacy

📖  It’s been years since anyone tended the old lighthouse.

Tourists come and go, snapping photos of the weathered tower that once stood guard against the storm. They say it’s haunted — that at night, a light still flickers from the top even though there’s no one there.

I returned not as a nurse this time, but as a writer. I carried with me the journal I kept during my time with Elliot — pages of words he would never read.

Inside the keeper’s room, the air still smelled faintly of oil and salt. The lantern sat where I left it, glass cracked but intact.

I placed the journal beside it and whispered:

The waves below crashed gently, as if in response.

When the sun began to set, the sea turned gold. I watched the horizon shimmer — and for a moment, I thought I saw him again, standing by the cliffs with Maeve at his side.

They turned toward me, smiling, before fading into the light.

I left the lighthouse door open as I walked away, the wind carrying their story across the sea.
