“Oh, you shouldn’t have bothered” I said, astonished I opened the package to find a get well soon care Kit.

Daniel looked glad and relieved too. He placed his hand over mine and rubbed it gently and briefly.
“So what are your plans in Paris, Kayla?” I asked, changing the subject. I wanted to veer away from the topic of Elijah. As of this moment, he was once again an insignificant thing of the past. “Are you just vacationing or is there something else you’re targeting?”
Kayla grinned. “Yes and yes! I intend to tour your campus and attend an upcoming conference for designers. So you better get well fast, so we can go together.”
