Julie Lopez experienced a fulfilling life.
However, she considered her great-grandchildren her greatest reward.
"Julie, I must show you something." A hospice nurse held her hand.
The nurse displayed a holographic projection showing a spacecraft orbiting an exoplanet covered with a civilization''s lights.
Taken from Royal Road, this narrative should be reported if found on Amazon.
Julie blinked in puzzlement.
The nurse transformed into an ethereal being, then vanished.
Julie awakened, instantly recalling what had happened.
She became a billionaire but felt disenchanted with the tragic loss of her fiancé, so she hired an engineering team to build a single-person interstellar spacecraft. Once they put her in cryostasis, she dreamed until her arrival.
