Troubled by thoughts, Zina tossed and turned all night and didn’t wake up until nearly ten in the morning. The worst part about not getting enough rest was that her headache was back again.

Zina casually opened the drawer, grabbed a bottle of painkillers, popped out two pills, and washed them down with some cold water from her nightstand.

Despite her delicate features, Zina couldn’t hide the irritation in her eyes.

Zina had a splitting headache that kept her up most of the night. She finally managed to fall asleep at 3 a.m., after taking some painkillers.

The painkillers did little to ease Zina’s pounding headache, leaving her groggy and disoriented.

Zina thought, ‘Maybe it was something yesterday that stirred up old feelings–my headache was way worse than usual.’

After taking her medicine, Zina pulled her phone out from under the pillow and turned it on to find several unread messages.

Lydia: [Hey Zinnia, free for lunch today? Do you want to grab a bite together?] The message was sent at 8 a.m.

Zina: [Sorry, Lydia, I’m tied up at lunch today. Rain check?]

Zina had barely hit send when Lydia replied: [Okay. I know an amazing restaurant. Let’s go together when you’re free, Zinnia.]

Zina: [Sure, free in the next few days.]

Lydia’s eyes sparkled with joy when she learned that Zinnia would be free.

“Hey, Lydia, what’s got you so happy?” someone asked with a teasing grin.

Lydia looked up and saw Toby. Toby’s handsome, mature face showed open curiosity as he studied Lydia.

Toby noticed that Lydia had maintained her usual stoic expression since joining Perkins Group a few days ago, so he was surprised to catch a hint of joy flashing across her face just now. That was rare.

Lydia met Toby’s curious gaze, then looked down slightly, her expression calm. “Nothing special, Toby,” she replied. “My mom’s making BBQ ribs for lunch.”

Toby teased with a grin, “Nothing beats having a mom who spoils you, huh?”

Lydia remained composed.

For the past four years, Toby knew Lydia was naturally reserved. She only showed emotion when Zinnia was mentioned; otherwise, she mostly kept to herself and spoke very little.

Ever since Zinnia disappeared four years ago, Lydia had become even more withdrawn and taciturn.
