About this ebook
Aria, a young beauty traveling through Chicago’s Union Station during the Corona Virus pandemic refuses to wear a mask which sets off negative reactions from other passengers: Darcy, an elderly woman who fears for her grandson Donnie and her own mortality: Monte and Janel, an interracial couple already on edge due to racial unrest, and Derek, the station security guard who grapples with confronting the mask-less young woman, but before he can, another passenger wages an uncomfortable confrontation in the Great Hall.

Storytelling is in my DNA. Having been a closet writer for many years, I favor short fiction and that's primarily what I write. Just published, 'The Lip' and soon to come is, 'Living Right' and my short story series, 'Girl's Night' and 'Romance Imperfect'. I love writing about contemporary life in an urban setting, about things that impact us emotionally whether it be love, family or crime. I was born and raised in Chicago which is where I live now, but have lived in New York City and Boston. Find out more about me and what inspires me to write the stories I write on my blog at: franchotinspired.com.

Get my heart medicine!
Darcy said.
It made her grandson Donnie panic every time she asked for it. He was in the backseat of the yellow cab with her, holding her medicine pouch. She liked to keep it separate from her purse, just in case. Donnie opened it immediately with his trembling, skinny fingers. He took out a little tin pill box, opened it and held it out to her. Her plump white fingers grabbed one and popped it in her mouth. Just then, the cab pulled up to the curb on Clinton Street, right outside Union Station.
Darcy paid the driver with her debit card, and then looked down at the mask in her lap. It was the standard blue, disposable mask. Donnie had the same one and it was tight
