About this audiobook

"Glass Walls" is a story of fated love, forgotten memories, and a promise that was too important to break. Essie leads a quiet, predictable life in a small, isolated village. She's content with her routines and the simplicity of her world, a stark contrast to the bustling metropolises she knows exist beyond her peaceful home. But when a stranger named Zayn arrives to stay for a few months, her perfectly ordered world is turned upside down. He is a man of mystery, his past and purpose hidden behind a wall of silence. As Essie and Zayn navigate their unexpected cohabitation, they find a connection that transcends words. But is this budding relationship strong enough to overcome their differences and the secrets that separate them? Or are the glass walls between them destined to shatter, revealing a truth too painful to bear?

3"The main thing is that it makes you happy."

4"I had a brain tumor when I was 13."

5"It’s not really muteness. The problem is in my head."

6"The tumor was in a really bad place, and there was a lot of radiation and surgery."

7"They say it might give me back the ability to speak."

8"The main thing is that I have to slow down. The doctor said to have as little stimulus as possible. To rest."

9"When I look at you, I so badly want to talk to you."

10"26."

11"It's very good!"

12"Grandma told me in time. I only brought warm clothes :)"

13"So, how much of a man am I? :D"

14"Nothing is good enough for you?"

15"1. Organ and singing = headache. 2. I'm not in the mood, I don't know anyone. 3. Nice dress, it suits you! ;)"

16"You smell good."

17"I'm sure you are. Sweet."

18"I have some bad news."

19"I won't do the dishes."

20"AND WHAT IF THE PAGES RUN OUT?"

21"IT'S FRUSTRATING!"

22"I wanted to ask, how much time would it take? The helping out."

23"There are some things that are better not forced."

24"So I wouldn't regret later that I didn't even try."

25"It's not nonsense, Essie! The doctor strictly told me not to force it. Everything has its own time. For now, my brain has to get used to it, slowly."

26"We can't control our fate, but we have the power to influence another's."

27"A little."

28"That's okay. I like your laugh."

29"Did you know you've barely spoken to me for two days?"

30"I had to realize not everyone knows Morse code."

31"A glass wall I couldn't get around."

32"Don't worry, I won't hit on you."

33"Only if the doctor lets me."

34"Thank you."

35"The pages have run out. We both know what we want to deny. We know what we don't want. And we know it would only cause problems if we can't understand each other, despite everything, right?"

36"I would have liked you to come with me. There were so many things I would have liked to show you. And maybe, if you saw the university, you would get a taste for continuing your studies. I would have liked to never have to write on the last page, because that's always at the end of something. At this moment, at the end of something that didn't even happen. The most beautiful dream, Essie... Your laughter. The way you so dedicatedly check and re-check that sapphire dress, which will never be ready for you. But think that with the idea you would have used to make that sapphire dress better, you can make other dresses perfect. And this is true for almost everything, when a person is never satisfied with something. —We didn't burp feathers. :D. I'm sorry that as much as we are opposites, the only thing we have in common now is that we're both impatient. Me too, because I'd like to talk to you so you'd understand, and you too... because you'd like me to talk. But it can't happen right now... Maybe it never will..."
