“Just another mad day on the road, honey! So sorry I’m not home for your birthday.”

This was the world of young, ambitious Sam. Harvard Grad. McKinsey Consultant. Racing through life.

Only for the pandemic to strike.

No more mad days on the road. No girlfriend to talk to, either.

Written in response to Justin Deming’s prompt for the week — ‘Moonlight Mile’.

The lyric I used for the story is — ‘Just another mad mad day on the road’.
