Serena's POV
I waited the whole night for Alexander to return but as it neared midnight, the hope within slowly died.
It felt like I was just a pass time. I took a deep breath, freshened up and went to bed.
But before I slept, I received a message from someone — Liam.
Instantly, my face lit up with a smile as I read the text:
[Serena, I'd love for us to have coffee tomorrow. We have a lot to catch up on.]
I hastily typed a response. [Sure. Just text me the time and location.]
[Great! I'd send it tomorrow morning.]
I read the text and replied with a thumbs up emoji, before placing my phone aside. I never thought that I would reconnect with an old classmate.
Before I knew it, I drifted up to sleep.
The next day, I woke up feeling rejuvenated. And as I freshened up, the doorbell on my apartment rang.
"Strange." I muttered under my breath. "Since when did I have a doorbell?"
