I started up my Mac and brought up my current novel that I was almost finished with. I wrote the final pages to my new book. I then looked at the time. Three forty. I did a quick look over and saved the document and sent it to my publisher. I then went into my inbox to check for new email. Right then my husband opened the door.

“Samantha, the show is about to start in fifteen minutes. Do you want me to make popcorn or anything?” He asked.

“Yeah. Just let me check my email.”

He left to set up for our weekly viewing of our favourite tv show. I then saw the email from my old college classmate, Jeff. I opened the email and my screen flickered. The computer shutdown almost immedietly. I tried to turn it back on but it seemed to have died.

I got up and went out to the living room.

“The computer broke.” I said my husband as he busied around the kitchen.

“Did you save your book.”

“Actually, I finished it. I sent it to the publisher.”

“Good! And I also invested some of our savings in to the stocks of your publisher, too.”

“When did you do that?”

“Oh a few minutes ago.”

He picked up his laptop to show me but it was off.

“Huh. That’s weird. Battery must of died. I’ll show you later. At least your book is safe.”

Yes. At least it’s safe…
