"Keira, can you cto the library? | have something to tell you," Yuna asked over the phone.
Could I really handle more tonight?
"Maybe another day. I'm a bit tired," | replied, hoping she'd let it go.

She hesitated, and | felt a flicker of guilt. "Is it important?" | asked, almost against my will.
"Yeah, it is," she said softly, almost unsure. "Keira, | can cto you if that's easier."
Great, now she was determined.

"Just sendyour address, so | can grab a cab," she cut in, and | could hear her gathering her things in the
background.
| looked out at the downpour, biting back a sigh. Getting a cab right now was impossible, and the last thing she
needed after her transplant was to risk getting sick.
Even though Hayden and | had split, | couldn't just abandon her. Not until she had someone else to lean

"Never mind," | said, resigned. "I'll cto you."
"Okay, I'll wait," she replied, sounding way too pleased
After hanging up, | gave the driver the library's address, and we swung around in the pouring rain.
When | got there, the place was practically empty-just a few people scattered around. Yuna was easy to spot,

Yuna nodded. "Actually... | like him, | liked him from the second | saw him."

So, it really was him.
| knew enough about Wade's love story to know he wasn't exactly the type to fall head-over-heels on a whim.

| still asked, "And what about him? Does he like you too?"
Yuna shook her head, then quickly added, "I mean, it's not that he doesn't like me... It's just, | don't know if he
does."
| leaned back, giving her a look. "Did you actually tell him how you t
