[ONC2023 Round 2 Ambassador's Pick and Shortlister] Getting over a loved one's death isn't easy. For Eric Gagnon, it's near impossible. A year after losing his sister, he's still struggling, questioning the meaning and purpose of life. He goes through the motions every day, not sure how much longer he can go on. With nothing to lose, he takes the advice from a neighbor and gets in the taxi that he'd only heard about but never seen. 
    
    When the taxi drops him off, he enters a place he never imagined, stumbling upon someone he never quite expected. Through this journey, he discovers something that goes beyond meaning and purpose.
    
    Prompt 9 
    "There's an urban legend that's been circulated for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into the cab."
