Adrian didn’t look at her, keeping his eyes on the road. “Junk food. A few things you actually need, not just those boring groceries.”
Crystal blinked at the bag, then slowly took it from his hands. She peeked inside—packs of crackers, fresh fruit, a few chocolate bars, even some energy drinks. Things she hadn’t bought for herself.
