"What the fuck did you send over, Nicky?" Laurie is screaming over the phone at six fucking  o'clock in the morning.

"It has a note. And I believe that the message was clear." the name Nicky answered.

"Well that's exactly, why I am asking!"  she exclaimed angrily, glaring at the innocently looking red leather pill box, that is instantly recognizable as a famous jewelry brand, sitting on her kitchen counter, with a note that says - I heard you cry over a guy, here's a small gift to let you know that I'd marry you anytime.

With the familiar scrawling penmanship in the white piece of paper, she would know who sent her the note, even without calling the guy on the phone.

***
When the guy you confessed to rejected you, and your two exes came back running—declaring they would marry you any time, what would you do?

Would you choose a familiar old love or the one that has your heart but doesn't want you?

And to add to the chaos, her mother is on a mission to marry her nearing thirty-something ass to any man who breathes. 

What should a girl do in such a situation? Run away, of course! 

But then, how far can you run away until all the life's decisions you screwed up in the past caught up with you and you ended up with no choice but to face them. 

Welcome to Laurie’s adventure and just to be clear this is not a love story BUT a quest.

"Who is this guy who makes you act like you're not yourself?"

"Let's not talk about it. It's just gonna ruin my day — our day," she stole a glance at Haru who was gripping the steering wheel too tightly, her knuckles protruding from the back of her small hands.

"Yeah, totally ruining my day. I wanted to meet this guy and give him what he deserved."

"I know. Likewise, I am pissed off, but what can I do? He doesn't like my advances, ergo he doesn't like me. Yet, I like him, so I'll talk to him - BUT," she raised her index finger in the air to keep him from cutting her off. "...I won't be doing anything major."
