A Story About A Girl: New Ending

As Linda kisses Michael, she realizes Greg is still waiting. She explains to Michael she owes Greg an explanation, and he understands. As Linda readies to leave, she finds herself unable to turn away from Michael, until she discovered her shoelace was caught on a branch. Simply because of a yearning for drama, she wished to slowly back away until Michael's image disappeared into the foliage surrounding the meadow. Unfortunately, she ruined it by tripping and falling into poison ivy. She then quickened her pace, wishing to begin her new life with Michael as soon as possible; unless Greg had bought her something pretty, in which case she would require further persuasion to leave him.

Linda arrived at Greg's residence to find police on scene. She was informed Greg was brutally defeated at Mortal Combat causing a series of seizures which lead to his death from his cat attacking him, thinking he was a predator. Greg's body was mangled beyond recognition, and Linda could only identify him by his custom game controller clutched in his hands. Linda immediately returned to Michael, and they lived out their lives happily. Greg's cat mysteriously turned up in a ditch shortly after his murder, and his spirit was laid to rest.

Very creative. I particularly appreciated the detail: "Linda could only identify him by his custom game controller clutched in his hands."

Poor Greg.
