Scarlet was living with Alex and Jasper for two days. While the writer was slowly getting better and regaining her smile, her eyes remained hollow without news about Edward. Scarlet often heard second-hand news from Alex or Jasper about her boyfriend who still never checked his texts. Apparently, Edward was working on something important with Jasper and Elfie but he wouldn't talk to her.
"As I expected... he must still be angry at me. That's why he doesn't check my texts. How long has it been? Four days? Will he really come back after a week?"
Alex looked up from her sketchbook with horror. Scarlet who had been lying upside down on the couch mumbled that to herself but Alex who had been focussed on her homework heard it all. She couldn't say anything back to make her sister feel better.
