Zinnia finished getting ready and stepped out of the yard, just in time to see Yannis wheeling out the electric

scooter.

Back in the small town, Zinnia and Nathan always got around on electric scooters, too.

“Hey, what’s up?” Zinnia asked curiously as she noticed Yannis looking troubled and walked over to him.

“Are we really riding this?” Yannis was still pushing the electric scooter, trying to figure out how it worked.

“Yeah, most people in the small town get around on electric scooters. Hardly anyone drives a car,” Zinnia said

with a nod.

“Let me look up how to ride it,” Yannis said, pulling out his phone to search. He’d never tried one before.

“Wow, there’s actually something you can’t do?” Zinnia teased, genuinely surprised. “Better figure it out first. I don’t want you dropping me.”

Yannis didn’t mind her teasing at all. He really had never used one of these electric scooters before.

“I know how! I’ll drive,” Zinnia beamed.

“Yannis, make sure you wear your helmet properly. And don’t wiggle around back there, okay?” She handed him a white helmet, the one Nathan usually wore.

Zinnia mounted the electric scooter with one foot on the ground as she fastened her own pink helmet.

Yannis took the helmet from her and obediently put it on.

“All set! Hop on, I’ll take you for a spin.” With her helmet secured, Zinnia turned to Yannis, her delicate, soft hand patting the seat to signal him up.

“Okay, Yannis replied, effortlessly swinging his long legs onto the backseat. He wrapped his arms around her waist, leaning in just a little.

Feeling his arms around her, Zinnia’s cheeks flushed. “Yannis…”

“I saw in a video tutorial that you’re supposed to hold onto the person in front, or you might lose your balance, Yannis said, his clear, pleasant voice coming from behind.
