ALANA
I hated goodbyes.
But I had accepted long ago on the train that I would have to say goodbye to Knight. If we really were meant for each other, I'd meet him again. If not, I couldn't control my destiny. I was willing to go with the flow. See what happens next.
That's why my heart was at ease.
He jerked his head into a nod as a silent goodbye. I returned the gesture with a small, sad smile and turned away to the final bus that would take me straight to my apartment building. Knight headed in the opposite direction and I watched his form disappear till I couldn't see him anymore.
Trees swayed as a cold breeze blew, almost knocking me off my feet. I should've definitely worn something warmer. Istanbul was cold all around the year. Good thing I liked cold, then.
. . .
"Hi," I waved at my new roommates, a big smile plastered on my face.
