Peter, Martin's Dad, died a month after his son's murder. The weight of that horrific event took its toll on the old man. Peter's wife Millie lived another five years, and she made sure her husband's business and legacy continued. She sold the business to the employees making sure the company would flourish after she was gone.
Right after Martin's passing, Justine sold the house and moved into Martin's apartment, which gave her some closeness to the man who lost his life because of the events of that fateful weekend one year ago.
Justine turned over her dance business to Carmela, and spent the next five years as a recluse, mourning her loss and the actions that caused all the turmoil. She cursed Pierre for destroying her life twice, and the only time she smiled was when she learned of his death in prison.
In the end, Justine lost everything she loved and wanted because of her need to succeed. Had she just listened to Martin and stayed home, he would still be alive. Losing sight of what was truly important caused her a life full of regret and sorrow. There was no happy ending for anyone, only sorrow and pain. The only smile came to her when she learned how Pierre suffered over all those years, and died alone in prison.

Imshakenabout 4 hours agoThankfully this is fiction. Otherwise Karma could provide a most unfortunate deliverance. Thanks for sharing your non uplifting story. :o) I apologize for only giving it 4 stars. It was well written but I'm so bummed...
Anonymousabout 5 hours agoActually, Pierre ruined her life 3x (unless I misread): before she knew her husband, his actions in France, & shooting him. I do wish Martin survived, but at least Cindy didn't have him in the usual car accident or dying from cancer or an unknown until too late STD. This story, while moving, didn't have the same "attack" to me as usual. Still, 4 stars. Bob
Anonymousabout 9 hours ago"What he did isn't your fault, and I'll try to explain things to Martin"
It was somewhat her fault. She skied past an avalanche warning sign. Hubris is a thing.
No one "deserves" to be roofied But preventing it is usually straightforward.
