"Uh-huh!" Norah nodded, "He's got another name, Xavier. He used to be a mercenary and fought alongside Estelle. I just found out he's actually Grandpa Hanson's son."
Henson's eyes sparkled with admiration, "I knew there was something special about him. He's Estelle's comrade in arms!"
Norah chuckled, "Mention Estelle, and your eyes light up!"
"Well, that's all the more reason I should help you!" Henson declared.
"How can you help me?"
"What's your plan for winning him over?"
"I don't have one."
Henson frowned, "How can you expect to succeed without a plan?"
Norah defended herself, "Love is subjective. It has nothing to do with having a plan!"
"How can you say it doesn’t matter? How did Estelle end up with Jonathan?"
Norah fell silent, her eyes wide.
"Think it over!" Henson stood up, "I'm off to play some video games."
Norah pouted, hugging a cushion, "But you said you'd help me!"
"I'm your wingman; you're the main player. You need to set up the game plan first, then I'll back you up!" With a cool twist, Henson opened the door and left.
Norah rolled her eyes, frustrated. Love isn’t a game, she thought, annoyed at the gaming metaphor.
Then she remembered Henson teasing her about being a witch, and she couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.
She got up and walked to the balcony, sighing deeply. Her eyes sparkled with hope. No matter what, they were together again. Just thinking that Xavier was close by made her feel secure.
She took out her phone and texted Xavier, "Come up to the balcony and watch the stars with me!"
Xavier responded much quicker this time:
"Tonight's cloudy."
