"Here she is, fixing him while her own self is falling apart"

They say time stops when you meet the love of your life.
But for Ophelia White, it ran out.

Xavier Diego, a 17-year-old boy, takes his life one fateful night, leaving everyone in grief. Due to this, Ophelia's already messy life gets messier as the heavenly world entangles itself with her.

With a mission to save Xavier and the Angel of Death on her tail, will she outrun time?

Or will it outrun her?

OUTRUNNING TIME

I awoke to soft sheets, and the morning light trickled in through the blinds. Shedding myself of the remaining glimpses of a dream, my eyes were still shut as I soaked in the warmth of my covers before letting my brown eyes see the sun's rays.

Slowly and reluctantly, I uncover my face. I blink, close my eyes, and blink again. Streaks of sunlight penetrate the window and blind me. I sit up, drag my feet off the bed, and rub my knuckles onto my eyes. I stretch my arms above my head and yawn. I watch my legs dangle above the off-white polyester carpet.

The room was silent with soft snores filling the silence. I looked around and saw Xavier on the floor. He was fast asleep on a mattress that he had placed right next to the bed I was asleep in.
