Acting is Leah Johnson's escape from a painful reality. Very painful.
Twenty-one-year old Leah Johnson's world has become rather isolated since she started Zach three years ago. He likes it that way because then the focus is on him, and if her attention to him wavers, his fists are quick to refocus her. Leah hides to survive, hides the bruises and her shame and relishes in those fleeting moments when she's on stage and deep within the mind of another character. Those are the rare seconds where she feels safe; a feeling that's become all but foreign to her.
Yet, issues arise when one of her charming co-stars, Kaleb not only has too keen an eye to Leah's bruises but also stirs something inside of Leah that she had pushed so far down over the years she thought it had disappeared entirely.
Hope for a Zach free future.
But Zach isn't the type to let go of something that he believes belongs to him. In fact, he's willing to kill keep it.
