The next day, during lunch break, Zinnia turned to Maisie behind her. She rested her chin on both hands and called softly, “Maisie.”

“What is it?” Maisie smiled, her eyes crinkling at the sight of Zinnia’s cute expression.

“Maisie, I wanted to ask you something,” Zinnia said.

Lunch break was long, and most students had gone outside to relax after eating. Ethan and Brian had gone to the drink shop downstairs to get orange juice for Zinnia and Maisie. Lydia had been pulled away by William to talk about the upcoming competition.

Now it was just Zinnia and Maisie in the classroom.

“What do you want to ask?” Maisie gently pinched Zinnia’s cheek.

“I wanted to ask about what happened seventeen years ago–when Yannis got kidnapped,” Zinnia said. “Does anyone actually know the real reason behind it?”

“Yannis still has insomnia, and no treatment has worked. So I thought maybe if I knew what really happened back then, I could figure out a way to help him.” She lowered her voice as she added that part.

Zinnia still hadn’t found a way to cure Yannis’s insomnia. She wanted to try and fix it before Nathan came back. If she couldn’t, then she’d have to wait for Nathan to help.

Once Nathan returned, Zinnia would definitely go home with him. That would make it hard for her to keep helping Yannis. So she wanted to cure him now, while she was still living in Cloud Harbor.

She’d promised she’d fix him—but it had been a long time, and she hadn’t come up with anything.

Yannis’s insomnia was one of the toughest cases Zinnia had ever run into. She was good at treating external injuries and strange illnesses, but when it came to the nervous system–like sleep issues–she was honestly not that good.

She really wanted to ask Nathan for help, but he wasn’t around. And she had already promised Yannis she’d handle it. If she failed in the end, it’d be embarrassing.

Worried she’d get laughed at by folks back in Tareston, Zinnia told herself she could not let Yannis ruin her medical reputation. At that thought, she clenched her little fists.
