I absolutely adore stories about time travel and getting a second chance. But this one missed the mark for me.The writing was just too confusing for me.

This story was quietly beautiful, but it fucking destroyed me. Honestly, I can't remember the last time a short story moved me this deeply. You need to read this; you need to read this NOW.
