I sigh as I get out of the car, only to find her leaning against the front door, waiting for me. “I’m sorry, Lex,” she says, reaching for my hand. “I shouldn’t have stormed off like that, especially not when we’re visiting my parents. I can tell you’re trying your best to keep the promises you made me, and the way I just reacted wasn’t fair.” My heart skips a beat, and I drop my forehead to hers for a moment, at a loss.
