Aban’s Accension

Format: Still in writing phase.
.
.
.

Synopsis: Aban is her name. She comes from a small Ontario town, the only child of two still-together parents who own a crystal and kitschy shop and expect her to work there under them. She falls mindlessly in with their wishes until the day she receives a letter from a city lawyer telling her that her grandmother has left her her house and all her assets. She didn’t even know her grandmother was alive. As she reels from the shock of that news, unexpected questions pop up: why had her parents let her think her grandmother was dead; why had they tossed her out of their lives; why did they live in a small town and no longer Toronto? Against her parents’ wishes, she goes to see this inheritance of bricks and mortar. A mysterious man called “El” opens the door to her, welcomes her in, and insists they have a wedding to go to. She decides to stay, and life for her becomes decidedly unfamiliar.
