Mandy is in love. She knows if anything were to happen to Cal, she wouldn’t be able to live with the pain. Or maybe she could, if she’s the one to kill hER.
In an effort to control the unbearable pain of losing a loved one, Mandy decides to be the one to kickstart the grieving process and instigate the loss herself—by killing her girlfriend Cal.
When Cal comes home from the hospital after suffering from a nearly-exploded appendix, Mandy is forced to question the mortality of her girlfriend. She considers the undeniable eventuality that one day, Cal might unwillingly leave Mandy through her own death.
