Ninety silver foil balloons. Ten party hats and ten party blowers. But no one at the party but Maribelle and her ninety-year-old grandmother. The self-quarantine order happened quickly, sending everyone isolating in their homes.
After retiring from the Air Force, Lucas needed a break. Some time to himself. Little did he know that the world had completely changed during the four weeks he avoided any semblance of civilization.
When Lucas found Maribelle and her grandmother isolating in a cabin in the woods, he wanted to catch up on more than just a world turned upside down.
A heartwarming short story set during America's fight with COVID 19.
