Death and Jackets

The text came in just after 9pm. She had been waiting for it, and she knew it probably wasn’t good news. Jessie hadn’t had much good news over the past few years. Her fiancé passed away two years ago unexpectedly. She had been with him over seven years and in that time, Jessie was every bit his wife as Mark was every bit her husband. Except of course for the legal paperwork declaring it as such.
