pause, he said, “Take care on your way back. And... goodbye.”
Elissa froze, her eyes suddenly welling up with tears. “Yeah. Goodbye.”
Robin slowly released her hand.
She gave him a soft smile, opened the door, and stepped out.

Elissa positioned herself rigidly, deliberately avoiding Ernest’s gaze. “What is it you want to say? Go ahead.”
A soft, contemptuous laugh escaped Ernest's lips. “When you rejected me, claiming | was only kind to you
because of Locke—was that just a convenient excuse?”
“What?” Elissa gaped at him, genuine
confusion washin verher features.
