The Contingency Plan: It only happens in the movies

It only happens in the movies

After hearing the latest stories of all the (bad) dates she's gone on, Jules looked at me and said, "I should just write a book."

And I thought that would be the last thing I'd want to read.

I'm tired of hearing about the cheaters, the losers, the men with bad dress sense, little tact and a shallow heart, about the ones who change their mind, change their number, revel in laziness and are unkind.

I need to hear one case where they meet, fall in love and despite the battles, stay in love and die that way.

That to me, is the miracle story.
