ANOTHER MONDAY MORNING, RACING AROUND THE APARTMENT, praying I
wouldn’t be late for work. Hal was at our kitchen island, spooning glutenfree granola into his beautiful mouth while I lifted objects and slammed
them back down in desperate pursuit of my keys.
“You sure you haven’t seen them?” I sounded frantic.
Hal gave one of his shrugs. “What do they look like?”
“They look like . . . my keys, with a fob.” The bright green, dropletshaped entry device had been a fixture of our butcher-block countertop only
ever since we’d moved in. “Forget it.” I flung open more drawers. We really
needed to get one of those wall hook contraptions.

Hal and I had been in Pittsburgh for a little less than a year, covering the
maintenance of a spacious if somewhat dilapidated loft that belonged to a
distant contact of Hal’s. My boyfriend had a way of drawing interesting

letter from my alma mater. I averted my eyes but not quickly enough to
miss the words emblazoned on the envelope: “Attention Jennifer Green,
Coleman College Class of 2007! Two Weeks to Go!”
Down to four days, actually. I was due to head out of town on Friday for
a full weekend of catching up with a group of people who, based on their
social media feeds, were all living their absolute best lives. I’d only been
dreading this getaway for five years, ever since the ten-year reunion, which
I’d managed to skip.
Hal and I had not been getting along at the time, and
I’d assured myself—promised myself, really—that I’d be in a better place
by the time our fifteen-year reunion came along. Lo and behold, I wasn’t.
