Alternate Ending to 'Happiness'

After both Edwin and Jack spent countless hours working on How to Be Miserable it was finally done. It was ready for the public to see and that’s exactly what they did. The next day How to Be Miserable by Tupak Soiree went on bookstands everywhere. Thousands of people went out and bought the book but only half of the people believed in what it said, especially one important person.

Edwin hasn’t seen this particular person in months. Last he heard she was working as an editor-in-chief at Key West Books, while he was still stuck at Panderic Inc. Of course he’d seen her at countless publishing luncheons and gatherings between the two publishing companies, but it was this one encounter that he finally saw her…the girl that he’s been missing.

She was dressed in a fantastic suit that fit her perfectly and her hair looked like it was professionally styled, but none of this mattered to Edwin. No the only thing that mattered was the perfectly crayola red lips that this girl had.

“Hello Edwin,” said May.
“Hello May. I’ve missed you” Edwin confessed.

Months passed and life went back to normal in the city. Eventually What I learned on the Mountain became a thing of the pass and everyone started to go back to how they use to be. Both Edwin and May ended up together and eventually had kids. Since then, Edwin has walked down the same streets he did every morning, enter the build that he worked at every-day (which was of course Panderic Inc.), and kissed May before he left. Edwin was finally realizing what happiness is. About how it’s not something that has to be perfect twenty-four seven and definitely something that you don’t need a self-help book to get.
