Complete story — includes the ending

Molly returns from her writer's workshop, much to Mike's delight. Even better, a publisher liked Molly's short story enough to give her a sizeable advance on her first book. Mike is relieved because the advance check will almost get him and Molly out of debt, but Molly ruins that when she buys a new car for him instead, leading to tension between them that is resolved when Mike's ancient car finally dies and the new vehicle is needed.
