Friedrich is training their new dog in the woods when he suddenly hears an ominous voice.
It's no other than his sister-in-law in a rather distressed state of mind.
Join me as we explore this touching reimagining of the Little Women universe, where hope shines brightest in the darkest of times. Whether you're a lifelong fan of the March sisters or discovering them for the first time, "Something to Believe In" is sure to warm your heart and inspire your spirit.
For the longest time I wanted to write Friedrich/Amy fan fic, and I must say, I don't think I have come across a story with just the two of them talking. I also wanted to touch on the subject of Amy's and Laurie's difficulties to have children and how hard that must have been.
In a world where the familiar characters of Little Women continue their journeys long after the pages of the book have closed, comes Something to Believe In-a heartfelt and tender reimagining that explores the complexities of love, family, and the quiet strength that sustains us through life's hardest moments.
When Friedrich Bhaer goes on a routine walk in the woods with his new dog, he is unexpectedly drawn into a conversation with none other than his sister-in-law, Amy March. But this is not the poised and self-assured woman he's known for years. Amy is distressed, her voice trembling with emotion, as she opens up to Friedrich about a heartbreaking reality that she and her husband, Laurie, have kept private for too long: their struggle to have children.
In this intimate and emotional tale, Friedrich and Amy share a rare moment of connection, one that sheds light on the deep pain and challenges of their lives. Amy, ever the perfectionist and deeply compassionate, has faced heartache in silence, burdened by the weight of not only her own grief but the immense sorrow of seeing Laurie, her beloved husband, struggle with the same silent pain. For the first time, she allows herself to confide in Friedrich-the man who once was the man of reason in her life, and now, perhaps, the only one who can truly understand.
