Microfiction
Terry had been all over the world searching for the perfect match. He needed a new heart. Since the forklift accident, doctors haven’t been able to regulate his readings. His body wouldn’t cooperate.
Until . . . he met Miranda; a forty-two year old waitress from Pensacola who jumped to her death on a chaotic Friday night from the top floor of her apartment building.
Her heart beats in his chest– he’s running with the clouds every day. And Miranda’s spirit rests.

Wow! I had to re-read this 3 times. Just because it hit me so hard. Amazing, Tre.

Powerful piece, trE. A personal wave of emotion for me, remembering a loved one in her twenties whose organs were donated two years ago following her untimely death. Some comfort knowing other lives were saved. 💕

Oof! I’ve heard of organ transplants where the recipient takes on the energy of the donor. This is deep.

Did she really jump though? I’ve been reading a lot of murder mysteries so that’s what I first thought 😅 But great short story, Miranda found peace and Terry got another chance at life.

She most certainly did jump! Per the probing of Peter, I believe I’ll do a microfiction story about Miranda, too.
