She Couldn't Do Anything

Nothing is going Ann's way.
No matter how hard she looks, there's nowhere to go, nothing to do, and no one to meet in her depressed, pandemic-ravaged town. And while the job market is bad, the dating market is worse still: Everyone who catches her eye is already taken, happily partnered up long before she ever had a chance to shoot her shot. Meanwhile, the world outside burns, and the community groups where she might would've met someone wither with it.
But just as she goes to distract herself anew, there's a sudden knock at the door.
Join Ann in
