The aroma of freshly ground coffee filled the kitchen, mingling with the scent of cinnamon rolls baking in the oven. Ava felt a swell of happiness watching the sunlight stream through the window, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. Last night with Leo had been exquisite, like something out of a romantic movie. A deep sense of ease settled over her; the world felt bright and full of possibilities.

She arrived at the library, and she saw Leo talking to a woman. The woman turned toward her, her face lighting up with recognition. "Oh, Leo, hey! There you are!" The woman gave him a warm smile, and then looked at Ava. Ava felt a knot tighten in her stomach.

"Are you the girl he was telling me about last night?" the woman asked, her tone even. "The girl with the... amazing laugh?"
