Hello! My name is Hadlee Rain. I'm thirty(something), average(ish) weight, vertically challenged, and work as a pest control specialist. (Sounds like a great dating profile description, am I right?) What I'm about to tell you is top secret. It goes in the vault, buried in a Doomsday bunker, and then tucked away in the molten core of a volcano. Like, I'd tell you but then I'd have to kill you secret. Except, I am going to tell you, but I'm not going to kill you. And I don't know anyone with a vault. Or a Doomsday bunker. And I don't really fancy a trek into an active volcano. Anyway, I think you get the point. This day I'm going to tell you about is the day I made a name for myself... Otherwise known as the worst day of my life. And, if you knew my history, you'd know that's really saying something.
This is where I'm supposed to introduce myself as the shy, nerdy girl. Then introduce the other protagonist of the story, who's a charismatic hot guy, and tell the story of how we hopelessly fell in love.
I wish things happened that way. I wish I had someone to share this story with.
But this is my story. This is reality.
It will go on, with or without you.
