I’m a food delivery driver. I don’t always follow the delivery instructions.
Warning: this story contains mentions of child and domestic abuse.
Spoilers Ahead!
Author’s Note:
Unfortunately, due to the podcast upload limits on my plan, I won’t be able to post volume 2 next week. It will go up the week after that.
This was one of the first short stories I ever wrote, and it’s still one of my favourites. Initially intended as a one shot, I didn’t want to leave the characters, and too many people wanted to know if they’d ever see Little Bud again.
So, stay tuned for the next two volumes, as Marie’s life gets weirder!
