[Hey Sienna, I got accepted. It's just a standard second-tier university, majoring in law. Even though it's nowhere near as impressive as yours was, I'm pretty content with it. Don't worry, I'm going to become a huge lawyer in the future. If anyone ever dares to bully you, I'll sue them until they're bankrupt!]
Sienna's emotions were easily swayed tonight.
Her eyes grew red again.
Her fingers hovered over the keyboard for a moment before she finally selected a thumbs-up emoji and hit send.
[Sienna, Noah's university is in the city, and he'll be studying there for four years. You need to make sure you take good care of him.]
Her mother, Lydia Cross, tagged her in the chat.
In the past, seeing a message like this would have triggered a severe stress response in Sienna.
But now, she just gave it a passing glance. She felt a ripple of emotion, but nowhere near the intense resistance she used to harbor.
[Mom! I'm an adult over eighteen. Do I need a babysitter? Am I disabled or stupid? Stop saying this kind of ridiculous stuff to my sister!]
Lydia acted as if she hadn't seen it, continuing to tag Sienna.
[Sienna, we've got his tuition covered, but his living expenses are on you. As his sister, it's your responsibility to take care of him.]
Sienna locked her phone and didn't reply.
She also missed Noah's final message in the chat:
[Mom, Dad, I'm officially announcing this right now. From today on, I am not taking a single dime from my sister. I'm heading to the city early to work and earn my own living expenses! I'm going to support myself!]

The day of the interview, the weather was beautiful.
When Sienna stepped outside, sunlight already blanketed the entire street. The birch leaves shimmered in the light, rustling loudly whenever the wind blew.
Finn had accompanied her.
The drive from Solstice Heights to the testing center took forty minutes.
He didn't talk much, occasionally bringing up lighthearted topics to ensure she remained relaxed.
Upon arriving, he parked the car and walked her all the way to the entrance of the examination building.
Just as Sienna was about to walk in, she felt a gentle tug on her wrist.
She turned around, and Finn let go.
