The Do Over Book Novels & Stories

The car purred to life, and we pulled away from the estate, leaving the chaos and humiliation behind. In the backseat, I stared out the window, the city lights blurring as we sped through the streets. I should have felt relieved to be away from it all, but instead, I felt… unsettled. “Do you know the best way to get revenge on someone like him?” Dominic’s voice broke through my thoughts. I turned to him, blinking. “What?” He leaned back in his seat, his smirk playful yet calculating. “Alias. Do you know the best way to make him regret every single thing he did to you?”

"Did you not understand a word I said?" "I understood every word of it." "Fine." He warned, "Don't come crawling back when you regret it." He quickly flipped through the papers and signed his name. With that, our 21-year relationship was over.

I requested and moved a step forward without even looking at the Doctor. I was hurt inside of me, but from the outside, I seemed like a cool cat. Different thoughts plagued my soul. If executed, I may likely spend the rest of my life in jail without a pardon. “It's over for you. You're laid off! I don't wanna return and see your ugly face.” I heard the Doctor's voice from a distance. “That serves her right,” I groaned After listening to her full confession, I felt no remorse for her. If there were other worse punishments she would get aside from getting fired, I would have gladly welcomed that.

"That bitch is no mother of mine. She had to treat me like one because she was infertile. My dad had raped Sarah when she was his nurse, my old man still can shoot his little army, but Sarah didn't love my father. A month after I was born, Sarah left me. She joined the army to be their nurse and soon had an affair with Don's father as she was later pregnant with Don. But because Don's father was already married, she had to let go of the man she loves and live with her brutal boyfriend raising Don." I continue to listen to this side story of Don's life mixed in with Eddie. "Don had all the attention with Sarah to the point where she had forgotten about me. At the age of eight, I hired someone

Another image appeared with the date written across the top. DECEMBER 2. "Day Zero." Then the date changed to NOVEMBER 25. Seven days before. Then another one appeared. NOVEMBER 18. Another seven. Sharon's eyes went wide. "The apocalypse is moving backwards." "Exactly." Alex's expression turned dark. Evelyn smiled. "Every time you change something, the timeline corrects itself." Sharon shook her head. "It doesn't make sense." "It doesn't have to." The screen changed to show Sharon's storage room.

He quickly fell asleep once back in bed. Jenna was wrapped tightly under the covers, staring blankly at the pitch-black ceiling. Every time she closed her eyes, she would recall the past. Whether it was when they first got together or when he successfully proposed, Matthew had promised countless times that he would never lie to her. However, every second of their time together was filled with deception. In the moonlight, Jenna turned her head slightly as she scanned Matthew's features inch by inch. She thought, 'Matthew, I'll leave you forever in just two more days. I hope you'll be pleased with your birthday gift this year.'

Emma stood frozen to the spot as if nailed there. A violent wave of nausea churned up from her stomach. She turned her head away and retched several times. Bernadette lunged forward and grabbed the doctor by his white coat. "That's impossible! You're lying! My dad was perfectly fine just yesterday!" The doctor stumbled from being yanked. He let out a sigh and said, "Ma'am, I'm sorry for your loss." Bernadette's face was filled with panic. "Impossible! I don't believe it!"

That feeling of being truly cherished brought tears to my eyes. Later that night, I received an email from Emily. The subject line read, "I'm sorry." "Dear Laura, I know you may never forgive me, but I still need to apologize. After the wedding, Jack got drunk and kept saying your name. He said he was planning to propose this Christmas and had already bought the ring. "He thought the two of you would last forever. He said he knows he made a mistake. That he truly, deeply regrets it..." I deleted the email and stepped out onto the balcony.

"If you can't get in this year, then retake the SAT next year..." Terence stared at them in disbelief. He shook his head frantically. "Dad, what's wrong with you? I'm the one who saved Kendall! The witnesses and the doctors can all prove it!" He turned to Kendall again with an innocent expression. "Kendall, I'm not asking you to repay me. I just want you to tell the truth. I was the one holding onto you in the river and pulling you out. And if I hadn't donated two bags of blood at the hospital, you wouldn't even be alive right now!"

After a few hours trawling Fifth Avenue, I stepped into Barnes & Noble, I needed to get some new reading material and more urgently in that moment, loaded with bags, I needed to sit down and get a coffee. The coffee shop was on a mezzanine level and I placed my order and dropped my bags next to a table at the edge overlooking the bustling first floor. There seemed to be a small crowd waiting for the arrival of an author to do a book signing. I tried to make out the name of the author on the signage but it wasn’t clear. The book was called “Starting Over” and I recalled I’d heard about it on a podcast, it was about a woman waking from a Coma and starting her life over. Apparently, it was the
