"Ride a hot air balloon," the list began, found folded inside a recipe book. "Learn to play the piano. Adopt a cat. Go to Paris." David, staring at his girlfriend, Jessica's, dreams, felt a peculiar heat rising in his chest. *Paris,* his mind whispered.

He looked at Jessica, a smile on his face, a false smile, of course.
