Sadie sat by the window, staring blankly at the fading night lights of Sunvale.
She wondered when Micah had set all this up. And when did he start tracking her every move? "Ms. James." Jesse cover, speaking softly, "Can we talk?" "Sure." Sadie said, pointing to the seat across from her.
"Sorry I couldn't help this time." Jesse apologized, looking ashamed, "I got ambushed and almost didn't make it to the airport. If it weren't for the Clemens family's help, who knows what would've happened."
