The conversation turned to the news that Allison had been in a car accident and was now in the hospital.

Ella’s eyes widened. “Allison was in a car accident? What happened? And she wants to go to Fiorenza with you? What’s going on?” She fired off the questions one after another.

‘Allison and Yanis have been getting along well, but now Allison wants to go to Fiorenza–after the car accident?‘ Ella wondered. “Is something going on between them?” she finally asked. It was hard not to overthink.

“It’s a long story,” Stephanie said, her voice trailing off.

“Will you be able to get back to Fiorenza tonight?” Ella asked. “If not, that’s okay.” She figured Allison’s health was more important than her anxiety.

Stephanie said, “Looks like we can.” Allison seemed really put off by Long Harbor, like she couldn’t wait to get out of there, and Stephanie wanted to help her feel better.

Ella stayed quiet. Hearing Stephanie’s words, she was pretty sure something was off between Allison and Yanis. ‘Allison wouldn’t ask for that if everything was fine. It seems like she’s desperate to get out of Long Harbor, she thought.

“Alright, just keep an eye on her,” Ella said, shaking her head. She wasn’t even in Long Harbor, and this was the kind of thing Stephanie couldn’t explain over the phone.

“Yeah, I know,” Stephanie replied.

After a few minutes of small talk, the call ended. Ella couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. Just then, there was another knock on the door.

Ella’s eyes widened. ‘What does Lorenzo want again?‘ she thought to herself.

“Ella.” Lorenzo’s voice came from outside.

The sound of Lorenzo’s voice sent a sudden warmth through her. Her nose started to tingle, and she reached up to wipe it. ‘Oh no, another nosebleed?‘ she screamed in her mind.

She looked down at her chest. Her smoky gray loungewear was splashed with a bright red stain. She hadn’t even noticed she’d started bleeding from the nose.

“Coming,” she muttered, annoyed at the timing of the nosebleed. She grabbed a tissue, quickly wiped away the blood until it was gone, then opened the door.

Lorenzo stood there, frowning. “Didn’t I tell you to change the bandage?”
