[Second Helpings 01] • Cold Turkey · A Second Helpings Short Story

**Virginia:** I left this small town five years ago, quitting the man I loved

cold turkey and fleeing a dull, rural life.

Running to the man I thought I loved, right into a life of misery in the city.

Here I was, being rescued on Thanksgiving by the only man who could heal my

soul.

But I was too proud to admit my mistake, so fate had to force my hand.

**Fox:** She nearly destroyed me when she ran away those years ago, but here

she was standing in the rain with a busted down car and a broken heart.

I swore I’d never love again, and meaningless fling after meaningless fling

left me hollow and shattered inside.

All along I needed her back, but I was too god damned stubborn to let her

know.

So fate stepped in and did it for me.
