LOGINThe meeting starts wrapping up. People start standing, stretching, and talking. Then I remember something that needs to be addressed. I look around at everyone. Right, I need to address this. I clear my throat, and everyone looks over. I fold my arms, “One more thing.” They look confused as I look a
The next morning starts the way most practice race mornings do. Too early, too cold, and too much coffee. I park up outside the training grounds and sit in my car for a minute before getting out. My hand automatically checks my pocket. The ring box is still there. Good. I shake my head at myself. Th
My mom gasps dramatically, covering her mouth, “Oh, my god.” I frown, thinking about what my mother is about to say. She points at Jen through the camera, “You’re pregnant.” Jen chokes on her own saliva as my mom continues with what she assumes is the news. “Oh gosh, honey, I’m gonna be a grandma—”

“Well, Andrea has been banned from his bedside whilst he is in there per Greg’s request. They are running some more tests throughout the upcoming days to get more answers about his memory loss and if it is permanent or just temporary.” Well, that’s some good news about the tests. But why has he bann
Chase sent me a text saying I should take some time for myself and that he and Sav will meet up with me later at Cloud Gate and he said that whilst we’re here in Chicago it would be stupid of us not to attend a game at Wrigley Field tonight. Well, I never thought I’d be going to one of the oldest ba
Taking into consideration what Sav said I do as she advised. Since landing in Chicago, it has been all about Greg, now it’s time I make time for myself. I don’t know when or if I will visit this city again, I want to see all the city landmarks, movie locations, and museums. Making a plan on where I
