[a few days after this, Angela and Kim talk about loving, losing and mourning.]

It's been months.

She opens the door to Staples, meaning to pick up a new flat screen monitor, and instead finds herself in ( Read more... )

Angela has been sitting and waiting and staring at that damn door for three days. Just hoping. Just in case ( Read more... )

It's a few weeks until Halloween in her world and Kim walks into the bar, trying not to drop a large box of decorations. She's focused on holding onto the sides of the cardboard, not noticing that she's no longer in her living room or anywhere near the front door. Not until she puts down the box does she realize that she's back in Milliways ( Read more... )

He stands on his two hind legs for a moment, peering around curiously, nose twitching. Then he begins to scurry across the wooden floor (expertly dodging the large ( Read more... )

The front door opens.

At first, it seems like the door opened on its own, but then a blond haired woman becomes visible.

A soft light surrounds Kim for a moment before she releases the source.
