"Will do, Sarah. Take care." I hung up, releasing a breath. It’s almost over I told myself Time to start my day. I started my day by taking Titan for a walk. The fresh air cleared my head.

Sarah’s Point of view: As we leveled off, I gazed out the window, watching the clouds drift by. Ethan joined me, his shoulder brushing mine. "Milan's going to be amazing," he said.

As we stepped out of the plane, the cool night air enveloped us, a refreshing change from the warmth of Milan. Ethan turned to Ember. "I'll drive Sarah home. You can take the car, Emberly."
