   Summary

   Belly never chased Conrad after kicking him out of her apartment in Paris. 13 years later, she's forced to confront the fallout of her choices when she meets his family.

   A tale of what happens when the person you've hurt makes choices that hurt you right back. Can you come back from that?

   Inspired by the lyrics of "God Knows I Tried" by Lana Del Rey
