Abstract The novella follows a protagonist named Charlie Tinger and his daughter Rainy. The purpose of this novella was to highlight the complexity of a father-daughter relationship, projecting a quirky and special bond between the two. Written with the intent of eliciting emotion in the form of humor and sadness, I sought to transition between these two extremes. Another central goal of the novella is to build rapport with the audience, connecting on a deeper level with characters that the reader can easily relate to. The novella seeks to emanate themes of forgiveness and a turning-away/turning-toward dichotomy. Written through the eyes of a rough-around-the-edges yet loveable character, this novella will make you ponder the unpredictability of life and how people put the pieces back together when it strikes.
