*ForeWarning* Depictions of death, loss, distress, and fear
    
    Despite the worry of her best friend and co-worker, Gabriella, a lowly waitress, realizes that her past has finally caught on to her. After a past colleague reaches out to her with a compelling message, she becomes distressed when a questionable figure enters the prominent restaurant and leaves blackmail. Having recently suffered a head injury, she can not deny her connection to the blackmail and leaves to rendezvous at the chosen place. Only there does she realize that she has to make a choice, one with deadly consequences. In an unpredictable twist ending, Gabriella decides to take a shot in the dark, carrying the full weight of her past once and for all.
    
    Author's Note:
    There are not many stories that I have truly enjoyed planning and writing like this one. When I thought of starting with an innocent beginning with a waitress working at a high-class restaurant, a twist ending was inevitable. The story played out before my eyes just how I had intended, and I could not be happier with the results. Writing does not always come as easily for me as other writers I know, but only having completed this story in two months and seeing the results has encouraged me to keep working and practicing toward my goals.All Rights Reserved
