THE MOMENT SABRINA saw jaxon's instagram post, her heart clenched. she had been telling herself for weeks that they had made the right decision—that asking for space had been necessary. but now, every time she saw a glimpse of his life through social media, it felt like the space was only making things worse.
sitting alone in her apartment, she replayed the past few weeks in her mind. her coffee with barry had been comforting, but it hadn't been what she needed. not really. and seeing jaxon's post only solidified that. no matter how much she tried to distract herself, her feelings for him hadn't gone away.

sabrina stared at the message, her heart pounding. joey was right. she and jaxon had been dancing around each other for weeks, neither of them willing to take the first step toward fixing—or finalizing—what had broken between them. maybe it was time to stop avoiding it.
taking a deep breath, she picked up her phone and started typing out a message to jaxon.

she hesitated for a moment before pressing send. the moment the message went through, a wave of anxiety washed over her. was this the right decision? or was she just opening up old wounds that hadn't fully healed yet?
