Scott handed Caroline some cherries and asked, “Isn’t the n practical?”
Caroline fixed her gaze on Scott. She wondered, ‘Why would Scott know about our next move? What’s
prompting him to mention this out of the blue?
Caroline replied, “You’re right.”
Scott asked, “So, if Evan’s father is out of the picture, will you consider reconciling with Evan
immediately?
Caroline hesitated. “I can’t be certain because I can’t predict what might happen between Evan and me
in the near future. I can’t provide a definitive answer.”
Scott suggested, “Alright, let’s change the subject then.”
He stood up and added, “It’s gettingte, and I have an early shift tomorrow,”
Caroline checked her watch reflexively. “It’s only 7:30 p.m.”
Scott paused as he put on his jacket and asked, “Caroline, do you not want me to head home?”
Caroline blushed and replied nervous y, “No, that’s not what I meant…”
“It’s okay. I understand,” Scott leaned in and whispered in her ear, making her blush from the flirtatious
moment.
Caroline quickly stood up and circled around Scott, saying, ‘ll walk you out.”
As they reached the door, Scott gazed at the neighboring vi and asked, “I noticed it when I arrived,
but I forgot to ask. Has the vi been sold?”
Caroline looked over and confirmed, “Yes, it’s been sold. The ownership transfer waspleted this
afternoon, and the new owners seemed to be in a hurry.”
Scott stared at the house momentarily, his eyes catching the dim streetlight. Just as Caroline was
about to ask about his interest, he looked away and retrieved his car keys. “Alright. You should head
inside. It’s cold out here. Goodbye.”
Caroline waved to Scott and watched him leave.

Later that night, at 9:30 p.m., Evan was reluctantly dragged out by Alex and Lucas for a night of
drinking.
Evan nced at Alex and remarked, “Has Paige given up on you? Is that why you’re allowed to go out
and have fun now?”
Alex replied firmly, “I’m not here for fun. I told Paige I’m out making ns for your and Caroline’s
happiness!”
Evan nced at the array of liquor on the table and scoffed. “Are you nning with alcohol?”
Lucas poured himself a drink and chimed in. “No, Evan. We have a real n, but first, we need to get
you a bit tipsy!”
Evan raised an eyebrow. “You guys must be really bored, huh?”
Alex grinned mischievously and exchanged a nce with Lucas, “We’re not bored. We’re dedicated.
Just follow our lead.”
At 11:00 p.m., Evan was sprawled on the sofa, thoroughly intoxicated from Alex and Lucas‘ relentless
drinking games.
Alex quickly grabbed Evan’s phone, unlocked it, and found his messages with Caroline.
Lucas leaned in to look at the screen. “Do they always chat like this?”
After a brief moment, Alexmented, “Looks like they have zero romantic intentions. Just asionall
texts.”
Lucas was equally surprised. “How does Evan have so much patience?”
Alex spected, “Maybe he’s worried about annoying Caroline. Let’s give her a call.”
He dialed Caroline’s number, catching her off guard while she was browsing fashion websites.
