Jake had his car parked right at the entrance, and as if on cue, Jeremy’s ride pulled up

Selina and Joy were whispering and giggling as they climbed into the car. Jeremy stood by his vehicle while Curtis lazily opened his door.

Jeremy watched her walk towards Curtis, his expression unreadable. “Sure,” he replied softly.
