Maya POV
Maya speaking to Jacob while sitting beside a pool. The sky is dark and the only lights that appear are the ones in the crystal blue water. Maya has her face buried in between her knees while Jacob has his legs in the cold water. Neither of them look at each other once.

"I don't believe that,"
"I've tried. Believe me I've tried,"
"Can you maybe tell me why?"
"Please don't make me talk about it,"
