Holiday Delights: Volume One - The Escape - Plot & Excerpts
“Damn rain!” she exclaimed, pressing the button for the 17th floor furiously. The elevator gave that familiar “ding” sound and Kelsey stepped into the empty elevator. On this dreary Monday morning, Kelsey was late. She always arrived at the office at least 30 minutes before everyone else, but today was a fluke. She woke up late – after her fiancé, Carl, cancelled their date because of a cold, she decided to go out late with her best friend, Alex, who was leaving the next day another one of her long trips. Normally, Kelsey hated staying out late, but it might be months before she saw Alex again. They stayed out late and she stumbled home at 3 am after a night of Jaeger bombs and karaoke in Chinatown. Normally, she could make it to work in no time if she took a cab. However, a freak rainstorm appeared out of nowhere, surprising thousands of New Yorkers, causing traffic jams and lines for the buses and subways. She checked her watch – 10:31 am. “Misfortune always comes in threes…”, she muttered to no one in particular.
