"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.

On a makeshift stage hanging from some metal rails at the far end of the room, the DJ booth was pulsating with music. Dominic has his hand on the small of her back, keeping her close for the dance floor was crowded and patrons were going wild since it was already past midnight.

Dominic received a call from his friend inviting him to come to this underground party after their late dinner. She glanced up at the DJ booth and has a feeling that the man scratching the turntable is somewhat familiar. She couldn't pinpoint when she knew the guy, but she had a feeling she had known him from before.

"They are at the VVIP lounge," he yelled over her head. The music was so loud, it was difficult to hear each other.
