Of course, I was out of a job. No one, so far, had picked up any time-traveling.  I have no obligation to the US government nor any need to prevent WW3. Still - Jade Lu is probably one of the most dangerous spies of all time. I don't know this for certain, but I have a hunch. 

There's a chance of ruining with Steve. I feel like an idiot for even hoping, but the excitement of reuniting with him outweighs that of reuniting with Edward. I'm such a horrible person! 

Still, I try to resit the urge. There are no texts on my phone. 

Amber is always out and from her Instagram - it seems as if there relationship has returned back to the way it was before, if not more so. Steve takes her out to restaurants. Sometimes, I can hear her giggle through the walls. 

Amber has her time with Annie in the morning the first half of the week, and I have my afternoon with Callie the second half. We coexist fine... sort of.

I just can't stop thinking about him. My 24th birthday came with the arrival of my sister's family and parents from out of town to come take me out to eat. I avoid alcohol the whole dinner for the kids' sakes and thought of Steve, my coming jaw surgery, and impending age.

Then, against my better judgement, I find myself writing a love letter to Steve. I go to White Plains, driving past the old mass my family used to go to, following it to the new office park he's working in. My heart flutters the whole time as the clock reads: 11:11, 11:22, and finally 12:21. Steve is my soulmate despite all my doubt and time-traveling. We would be able to have conversation that we have put off for so long. Who knows, maybe has broken up with Amber now. My mom, who stalks her to keep me from doing so, tells me there's no Instagram anymore. She was probably lying to me but, I just have so much love in my heart for Steve... we are so much the same. Surely, when he realizes our connection, he will change.
