Chapter 0677

Nina

I walked down the street, taking in the fresh afternoon air. It was going to get even hotter today, and my pool at home was already calling to me.

I slipped my phone out of my pocket and texted Enzo: "Where are you at?"

"Sports shop," he replied a few moments later. "Needed some things."

I almost rolled my eyes, but couldn't help but smile. 'Needed some things,' he had said. I had been with him long enough to know that needed some things' was actually code for

fangirling over new hockey supplies.

"On my way," I quickly typed back before sliding my phone back into my pocket and making my way to the store.

Upon entering, the distinct scent of leather and equipment immediately filled my senses. The shop was a familiar place, one where Enzo often came to browse or buy new gear, I spotted him at the far end of the store, trying on a pair of new hockey gloves.

"I think you might prefer the leather in these ones," the shop owner, Derrick, said as he handed Enzo another pair. He paused then, glancing over his shoulder as I approached. "Oh, hey, Nina."

"Hey, Derrick."

I leaned against the wall, observing Enzo as he flexed his fingers in the new pair of gloves, assessing the fit. When he noticed me, his face broke into a wide grin. "Hey. How was the cafe?"

"Hey," I replied, walking up to him. "It was actually pretty good. Sarah's great, and you won't believe what happened with that woman from yesterday."

As I recounted the cafe incident, Enzo's laughter mingled with mine. "Karma at its finest," he commented, shaking his head.
