Echoes of the River: Rewriting My Sister's Fate

When Summer and her sister Autumn both fall into the river, Arthur saves Summer first, and Autumn is lost to the water. Grief and guilt bind the two families together, and Summer eventually marries Arthur to repay the debt. Decades later, at fifty-eight, they return to the river that swallowed her sister. Arthur shoves Summer against the bridge pier and jumps in, his dying words a vow never to save her again. Summer wakes to the suffocating panic of drowning, back at eighteen, with Arthur swimming toward Autumn. This time she swims after them and helps drag her sister onto the bank. Arthur realizes Summer has returned too, and tells her the past was a mistake, that he has always loved Autumn. Summer must decide whether to let her sister walk the path that once doomed her, or rewrite both their fates.
