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*

Hypothetically

Concentrating on her homework after coming home from Aaron's place was a near impossible task so Keeley gave up and decided to spend the night in her old bedroom back home. She could use her dad's advice right now.

When she opened the front door using her key, her father was watching a football game on TV and looked up in shock. "Honeybun! What are you doing here? I thought you were busy today."

She smiled in self-deprecation. "Am I not allowed to visit my favorite person on a day other than Sunday?"

"Of course not! I'm glad you're here."

He muted the game and patted the couch cushion next to him. She dropped her purse by the door and took off her shoes before curling up next to him and resting her head on his shoulder like she did when she was younger.

Robert had such a calming presence. She felt a bit better already just being near him.

"Dad…do you think people really change?" Keeley asked quietly.
