Newell had nothing to say to that.

She didn’t wait for him to reply. The call ended abruptly.

Newell’s hand paused midair, then he let out a quiet, helpless laugh. It felt kind of nice, being needed by her, even just a little.

After hanging up, Charlotte flopped onto her bed, still a little dazed. Her phone kept buzzing with social media notifications. In the group chat, Shirley was already venting.

Andrew: [Or maybe it’s your brain that’s messed up?]

Parrish: [LMAO!]

Stella: [Is it really that hard? Why don’t you just ask Charlotte?]

Shirley: [Charlotte’s busy helping Patricia find medicine. I don’t want to bother her.]
