Emma, a bit flustered, mumbled a few responses before making a quick escape.

Her cab was already waiting downstairs.

She quickly got into the cab.

Once the car door closed, her anxious feelings began to settle.

Although Emma was initially frightened by this unexpected warmth, a subtle hope started to bubble up
