Dana was surprised, rose up suddenly from the bed, and looked at the message one more time. He did send her a message. What's happening? she thought. She dropped herself back to bed only to stand up again. There's no way in hell she could fall asleep now.
During this occasion, she missed Jess the most. She used to call her anytime to tell her everything as soon as it happened. But now that Jess is occupied with her studies and research at Stanford, she has no one to call to share this moment.
She walks in a circle in the middle of her living room, biting her nails. An old habit her mother hates. She took a deep breath and decided to play the piano instead.
Running her fingers on the top of the keys, her phone ping for another message received. She's already scared to even look at it, but then what will she do? She still has to check it.
