But fate, God, or luck intervened. At a train station midway to London, Margaret's future took a blissful turn. Now she was on her way back to Milton. This time, she was going to stay.
For those in the habit of brooding, the new and unexpected invites reflection. It is a way to relive an experience, to relish happy moments all over again, and to convince themselves of the reality of incredible events. Dazed and bewilderingly happy, John and Margaret affirmed—with each recollection of events of the past hour or two and the plethora of emotions they elicited—that they were indeed together, in the train back to Milton.
About Evy Journey
Evy Journey has always been fascinated with words and seduced by beautiful prose. She loves Jane Austen and invokes her spirit every time she spins tales of love, loss, and finding one's way--stories she interweaves with mystery or intrigue and sets in various locales.
She's lived and traveled in many places, from Asia to Europe. Often she's ended up in Paris, though—her favorite place in the world. She's become something of an observer-wanderer. A flâneuse, as the French would say.
The mind is what fascinates her most. Armed with a Ph.D. (University of Illinois), she worked in mental health, researching and developing programs. And writing like an academic. Not a good thing if you want to sound like a normal person. So, she's written fiction (mostly happy fiction) as an antidote.
