More DescriptionR.I.P - Alexander Hemmingway the Third was born to be successful. He was the envy of those around him, his skills could not be rivalled and his future was prosperous, so why is he now sleeping rough on the streets? This short story explains how Alexander's destiny flips so catastrophically after a night of unintentional yet fatal decisions. The aftermath of which destroys not only his future but rips apart three generations of an innocent family leaving this lonely broken man coping with a mind full of regret. When Death Comes Knocking - Arthur Crowther is a man tortured by his past and ever since the death of his wife this disgruntled pensioner occupies his days by persecuting anyone and everyone who crosses his path. He is a hollow, resentful man that is unable to feel compassion or empathy anymore and that is why he sits alone in his front room loathing the world outside his window. Arthur has no dreams or aspirations anymore since all of those ambitions were stolen by his only son, therefore he waits and he festers in the hope that death comes knocking on his door. For nineteen years this simple request has been ignored, until now that is, and when Arthur invites the hooded stranger into his home he at last allows himself to relive a lifetime of wonderful memories but is it too late to repair his past mistakes. When Death Comes Knocking: Part II - Lucy is on the edge, her life is spiralling out of control and her new job leaves a lot to be desired. It is only when tragedy strikes that this young nurse finally realises her true worth but is it too late to rectify past mistakes?
