When Estrella passed by Jason’s room, she noticed Holly was already asleep on his be Shaking her head, Estrella wrapped her coat tighter and retreated to her own room.

The next morning, as Estrella’s eyes fluttered open, Bryce was peeling an orange on the sofa beside her. Noticing she was awake, Bryce popped a couple of orange slices into his mouth. “Run into Jason last night? Any arguments?”
