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*

Dissertation Committee

The morning of Keeley's dissertation committee, she looked out the window and saw the terrace covered in snow. It was beautiful but she really hoped it wouldn't hinder traffic at all.

Dressing professionally was difficult with her ever-growing belly. She ended up wearing a long-sleeved navy blue dress with thigh-high pantyhose and black flats. A pair of cheap gold dangly earrings adorned her ears to match the DNA necklace she wore for good luck.

"How do I look?" she asked nervously. Wanting to make a good impression, she had actually put on makeup for the first time since their wedding.

Aaron gave her a quick hug. "Like a future scientist. You look great. You should eat something though. Didn't you say you'll have to be there on your feet for up to two hours?"

"That's what I heard."
