Phyllis Benton conveys shame and guilt from years of abuse.
Twelve-year old Phyllis suffers molestation due to her mother's
promiscuous behavior. After her parents separate, and the state
places her and her seven siblings in foster care, Phyllis
endures verbal and physical abuse that continues during her
marriage that ends in divorce. Stalked by her former husband and
feeling trapped, depression leads to feelings of inadequacy, and
a close brush with self-destruction. The cycle repeats when the
marriage to her second husband degrades to another abusive
situation. After suffering years of abuse, her husband dies from
an illness.
Phyllis, alone but recovering from the abuse, meets a mysterious
stranger. She weights his intensions, but admits his tender
approach helps her cope with past traumas and the associated
anxieties and depression. Through sincere friendship that peels
away fear and uncertainty, she begins to trust again and accepts
the new love in her life.
