After composing herself, Zinnia looked into Nathan’s worried eyes.

She lowered her head and said softly, “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have taken it out on you

Nathan listened as she apologized, his eyes gentle, “Zinnia, if you want to return to Jinston, you can. I’ll go with you Let’s leave now. There’s still time,” he said.

He noticed Zinnia wasn’t quite herself today, and he knew what was bothering her. Yannis’s birthday was approaching. Zinnia had promised to go back to celebrate it, but in the end, she broke her promise.

“No, we’re not going back. You can’t take such a long journey in such a condition, Zinnia said firmly, shaking her head. She knew Nathan couldn’t endure such a trip anymore,

The trip back to Jinston would take four hours, and with so much traffic during the Christmas holidays, they might arrive home very late. Nathan couldn’t handle that kind of journey. He needed to focus on his recovery now without stress or worries.

However, Nathan gently ruffled Zinnia’s hair and said soothingly, “Zinnia, I’m really fine”

“Nope, we’re staying put. You’re in no shape for such a long trip, Zinnia declared, determined not to go back.

She might miss Yannis’s birthday celebration this time, but there would be other chances. She couldn’t let Nathan risk his life by taking such a long journey,

asked.

Since Zinnia really didn’t want to leave, Nathan didn’t press the issue. He just handed her a glass of orange juice.

Holding the glass of orange juice in her hand and hearing it was Christmas Eve, Zinnia paused, a little dazed.

She’d been so caught up lately that she hadn’t noticed how quickly time had passed. “Christmas Eve,” she murmured, as the realization slowly hit her.

Zinnia looked out the window and saw fireworks lighting up the sky, filling the small town with festive cheer. She could faintly hear children playing and chasing each other outside, their laughter mingling with the pops

of firecrackers.
