"There's been an accident."
To be honest, those are not the first words I want to hear.
I'm a grown man, and I can handle shit pretty easily. But nothing sets my heart in a frenzy when I hear something like this.
"Is Claire alright?" The thought of my fiancée's broken body nearly gave me heart failure.
I heard the eyebrow raised on the other end. "It isn't her...It's Maya."
If any bad news about my fiancée almost killed my heart, then any bad news about the woman I once loved would.
