Come here and look over the railing here.” Blake motioned for the women to follow him to a railing, and they looked up and down.

My heart was pounding, and my mind was still reeling from the shock. I couldn't imagine Soren's reaction to my "near-miss." He must think I was the clumsiest woman on Earth.

“It’s just a trap to get people to buy it.” “It smells like rubber shoes,” Maya admitted, poking it with her fork. “But like rubber shoes with a mix of lemon sauce” “You’re going to get food poisoning.” “At least I’ll miss chemistry,” she shrugged. I laughed, shaking my head, and for a moment I forgot about Sophie Wilson and her aggressively shiny lip gloss and happy life. But of course, the universe hates me.

Then, when we passed the escalator, she couldn’t take her eyes off it, looking mesmerized by the sight of people riding it up and down.

“Hold me tight.” “What?” The elevator starts moving downwards, faster with each second. Maya's fingers claw at my arm as she steadies herself for balance.
