Two Stops To Forever

Cole is an ordinary young man who carries a deep sense of not being good enough because of things from his past, not good enough for success, and not good enough for love. He works as a marketing manager for Healthpital, a company that is struggling to sell its medical devices. One day, Cole takes the subway to meet with a client, where he is unexpectedly asked to fix a broken device. On the way, he meets an older man, Dr. Cameron Thorton. The two strike up a conversation about work, life, love, and courage, and Cameron encourages Cole not to be afraid to approach a girl he likes. A few stops later, Cole sees a beautiful young woman named Holly. Even though he is nervous, he finally finds the courage to sit beside her and ask her out to dinner. Holly says yes, and for the first time in a long time, Cole feels like his life might actually be about to change. On his way back from work, Cole runs into Cameron again and tells him that, thanks to his advice, he spoke to the girl of his dreams. Cameron then reveals that he owns Oasis Springs Clinic, a chain of clinics, and decides to buy eighteen Healthpital devices, one for each of his locations. Cole closes the biggest deal of his life, negotiates a commission, and earns money that could change his future. That evening, Cole goes on a date with Holly, where he learns that she has spent much of her life afraid that she is not beautiful enough or good enough for anyone to love her. The next day, Holly invites him to a family barbecue so she can introduce him as her boyfriend. But when Cole arrives, he is hit with an unexpected shock. Holly’s father is Dr. Cameron Thorton, the man from the subway who helped him find the courage to change his life.
