Run, Girl (If You Can)

Keeley, a simple plain Jane, hits the jackpot. [No, she did not win the lottery!] At least that's what she thinks when she marries the most eligible bachelor in New York City: Aaron, a wealthy cold-hearted heartthrob and Tycoon. She wants to show the world that she deserves her position and bends over backward to fit into his world. One beautiful day, Aaron hands her a document asking her to sign. A divorce paper... "She's pregnant, and I need to take responsibility." That is the last thing that keeps on playing in her mind before she takes her last breath. Keeley dies, a 'hit and run'. [End of story. Not!] For some unexplainable reason, she wakes up as her younger self. A young high school girl, around the time when she first meets her cheating husband. Remembering her life with Aaron before she died, she makes a promise to herself that she will do everything in her power to avoid him at all costs. Will she be able to keep her promise when Aaron has his own plans as well, specifically for her? Or will she repeat history and fall for him once more... Why not journey with me and find out the truth behind their story. *Cover art by polkadottedscrunchie*

Condolences

A coworker Robert was particularly close to spoke next of his intelligence, work ethic, and sense of humor. Those two had hung out a lot working at the construction firm but even more since they both retired.

He had been quite upset when Robert needed to be moved to the care facility. Since he was getting on in years too, it was difficult for him to go visit but they video chatted whenever his friend was lucid and could remember him.

After he sat down, it was Violet's turn. Even though black wasn't technically required at funerals, she had worn a simple black dress and tied her hair up with a black ribbon for the occasion. Keeley was wearing black too since it matched the color of her despair.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Violet and I wanted to speak today so I could tell my grandpa I loved him one last time. We were very close. He never missed a single one of my concerts or recitals before he was too sick to drive on his own."
