Mom and I part ways in New York, each taking separate flights. Jane looks as though she’s just rolled out of bed when she meets me at the terminal entrance Sunday night.

“Fun weekend?” I ask, tossing my duffle bag into the backseat.

Jane sighs. “No. You’ll be proud of me for being a studious college student. I had a late study group last night, oh and I need to replenish the stash. Too many Hallmark marathons on TV this morning and the chocolate called to my soul.”

“Well, this should give it a good start,” I say and dig into the front of my back to hand her an enormous New York chocolate bar. Fancy enough that the chocolate is wrapped in gold foil and cost me fifteen dollars for one candy bar. Call me a true Manhattan Diva now.

“It’s like our brains are connected,” she says. “So, how was it? Amazing, I bet.”

“More than amazing.”

“Oh, Jonas stopped by this morning—he left a report he wanted you to look over I guess—anyway he told me about your mom. How are you doing?”

I smile this time. “You know, it was hard the instant she told me. I could only think of my dad, but she’s so happy Janey. Todd’s a good guy and I can’t expect her to stay single forever. Now we need to find my dad a woman just as awesome.”

“That’s exciting then. I expect to be invited of course, and I get to do your makeup for the wedding.”

“Deal. So, Jonas came by, did you see Axel?” I ask.

Jane shakes her head. “Jonas said they were still sleeping, late night, I guess. Sorry, they’ve already left—at least according to the timeline Jonas gave me.” She glances at the clock on the dash. “You’re right, though, Axel is a looker. That Logan guy isn’t bad either if he could just keep his paws off my food.”

“Oh,” I say, a little disappointed. “Hopefully they had a fun weekend.”

“Hey, I wouldn’t worry about Axel being out late,” Jane adds. “He was all over you before you left. And Jonas would have said something, I’m sure.”

“I’m not worried.”

“Brita.” Jane tilts her head and smiles. “I know you better than you think.”

“I’m really okay,” I say, and I’m pretty sure I mean it. “I’m ready to just enjoy Axel and see where it goes.”

I add a smile for good measure. Jane lifts a brow. “Well, alright then,” she says. “Very mature and secure of you, Brit. You’re growing up so fast.”

“I would never have made it without your motherly care all these years, Janey.”

We laugh as Jane drives too fast back toward campus. I’m grateful when the conversation drifts to Emma and Brody. She really did tell him the truth and it went in Emma’s favor. Jane tells me they’ve ruined The Lab since Emma hangs around until he finishes his work, or they spend too much time in the corners of the building doing things not related to computers.

I loved New York, it gave me a lot to think about.
