Just for me?’ she wondered. Sienna silently repeated the words to herself. “No, more likely, he bought it just for Yvette

If she hadn’t bumped into Yvette earlier, maybe Sienna would’ve believed him. After all, Josiah genuinely didn’t like sour- sweet snacks like this,

He really cared about Yvette, so much so that even small treats like this weren’t overlooked.

“Why aren’t you eating” Josiah held the package in front of her for what felt like forever, but she still didn’t move.
