Context

Text

All of Will’s plans changed. His last year at college, forgotten. His career in law, forgotten. His brother. His friends. All of it gone and erased by one thought. Go west. Or east. Or anywhere but here. Will purchased a ticket on the first train through — with no regard to its destination. He wrote a letter to Aggie and posted it immediately – knowing if he waited for even an hour he would no longer be angry enough to send it.
