Story Idea - Rewrite (once again)

After my OGR my story has had to go through another rewrite but only to fix some points that didn't fit with the overall plot.

Story Idea

A light house keeper and his young daughter are setting up and turning on the lantern of the light house as a storm starts to roll in. As they watch the storm from inside their home the keeper spots a boat that’s in trouble and is heading for the rocks. The man tells his daughter to stay in the light house no matter what happens as he goes out to help. The young girl watches from the window as the storm becomes more wild and the waves violently hit the rocks.

Years later, in the present, we see that the girl has now grown up. She is seen standing in front of her father’s grave showing that he didn’t survive, it is also shown that she has become a light house keeper herself to carry on his memory and to protect others from the same fate. However, the grief of her loss is still with her as she now spends all of her days and nights locked away in her light house on her own with none to talk to.

However, a young man appears at her door one day and introduces himself as having moved into the old fisherman’s cottage that is located not that far for the light house. He tries to befriend her, commenting that he thought that she might be lonely like he is, along with trying to give her a flask of homemade soup but she pushes him away and closes the door on him.

However, this doesn’t deter the man as he goes back to his cottage and sets about making more soup, for his own lunch or dinner, with his blender. As he looks out of his kitchen window he can see the keeper’s silhouette as she looks out to sea, unaware that she is really looking down at the cottage.

Day after day, month after month throughout the year the man goes about his day making soup in his blender, puts it in the flask, goes up to the light house to try and talk to the keeper. The light house keeper, on the other hand, has been trying to stay out of his sight by hiding at the top of her home but as the year goes on she slowly starts to make her way down the tower towards the door each time he knocks.

On one night, however, as the light house keeper is turning on the lantern for a storm that has started to roll in they hear the man knock at the door. This time she runs down to answer it but finds that the man has gone only leaving behind the flask of soup, the keeper becomes upset that she missed him and goes to pick up the flask. But just as she is about to do so a sudden flash of thunder and lightning grabs her attention and to her horror she sees the fisherman’s cottage has been set on fire by the strike.

Quickly making her way down to the cottage she sees that the man is still inside and attempts to save him but as she is about to run in to the building she catches a look at a bust of flames and they remind her of the waves that claimed her Father’s life. Fighting back the memory the light house keeper runs in and pulls out the man’s body.

A few days later the light house keeper is shown standing in front of a grave once again. It is shown that it is still her father’s only this time the young man appears next to her. He takes her hand showing that she has finely opened up him and accepted him into her life.
