Butter Pecan Dream

Niles

I have the perfect job, the perfect cars, and a more than adequate bank account. Up until six months ago, I believed that I would have the perfect wife. Helena was beautiful, smart, and ambitious. I thought that she was flawless, until the day that I learned of her cheating.

Instead of allowing her actions to break me, I let it fuel me. I drowned myself in work, and locked away any trace of her, only to be met in my dreams by another. For the past six months, I've been haunted by the most mesmerizing hazel eyes. It's always the same girl, always a beautiful beginning, but never an end.

After closing a huge deal, my friends suggest that a vacation is in order, and for once I don't refuse. My plan is to relax, have fun, and maybe throw in a little pleasure on the side.

While on vacation, I question my sanity and struggle to keep my plan alive because that plan didn't include my dream colliding into my reality. It didn't include the girl with the hazel eyes.
