1.3: Hymn by Amy Claire Shearer
Written By Amy Claire Shearer
"What do you do when everyone is telling you one thing, but he is telling you another?"
Grandmothers are always right. Especially when they were Suffragettes. But, what happens when everyone else disagrees and she isn't there anymore? You turn to the one person who understands. Who gets you. Who wants you to be with him. You might be fighting a different cause from your beloved Grandmother - but this time it's in his name.
