The thing was, Anna had been my first love.
We were both around 20 back then and attended college together.
I loved her deeply and even proposed to her, but…
she turned me down because I had to move to another state for work.
That was how we ended things.
The last thing I ever expected was for my dying wife to bring up my former girlfriend.
A woman I hadn’t heard from or seen in nearly 40 years.
Over the next few days, Carol got worse.
Three days later, she passed.
My heart was broken.
I had no idea how I was supposed to keep living without Carol.
I missed her terribly.
But over the next few weeks, I couldn’t get her words out of my head.
Why had she asked me to find Anna?
