What she didn’t expect was him standing her up after she had, for once in her
life, reached out to him.
So, the very annoyed Luna sent a scathing voice message to Zachariah,
chewing him out without using even a hint of vulgar language, and promptly
blocked him.
Abigail could only stare wide–eyed as Luna yelled at her phone.
Once Luna was done, she shook her short blue hair nonchalantly. “Don’t feel

have your wife’s handwriting?”
Sean knew Kevin well; he was the kind of person who didn’t believe in looks
when it came to picking up girls but loved to judge them based on their
handwriting.
