sreason , Josiah still couldnt bring himself to do anything about it .

Inside the flower shop , Sienna couldnt care less about how Josiah felt or whether he was angry .

replied , taking the flowers to wrap them .

It wasnt hard to figure out if you really think about it .

You said you were buying flowers , didnt you ? There were only a handful of flower shops nearby , so finding her

Sienna sighed lightly , already regretting that extra detail she had let slip .

Lets go .

Josiah .

Sienna gave him a somewhat helpless look .

Josiah paused for a moment, a faint frown of displeasure crossing his face , Oh ! Is he unhappy ? Thats exactly

what | want, she thought .

Sienna hoped hed get annoyed enough to break up with her out of frustration .

Her jusiah said nothing .

He simply placed the flowers in the trunk , opened the car door, and said , Get in .

into the car, giving him an address .

Pinkine Town .

Pinkine Town ! Josiah repeated , then nodded .

Alright .

He entered the destination into the GPS , started the car, and asked , What are you going to Pinkine Town for ?

Sienna didnt respond .

She leaned back, closed her eyes , and said , Just drive .

Why do you need to ask so many questions ? Caught off guard by her sudden irritation , Josiah hesitated for a

moment , leaving the car idling .

Sienna opened her eyes, clearly annoyed .

Are you driving or not ? If youre not .

Im getting out .

Im driving .

Josiah quickly pressed her back into the seat, exasperated .

Buckle up , sweetheart .

Were leaving right now .

Sienna had a way of throwing a tantrum whenever things didnt go her way .

The car finally pulled out , heading toward Pinkine Town .

Pinkine Town was her grandmother Fionas hometown .

After her parents divorced , her mother had brought Sienna there to stay for a while .

Later , her mother had been buried there , in the hills behind her grandmothers old house .

Since returning to Jetacrity , Sienna hadnt visited the town In fact, even during the years she lived in Jeiacrisy ,

she rarely went to see her mothers grave .

The memories were too painful .

It wasnt that she didnt want to see her mother .

She just felt unworthy of facing her .

Pinkine Town was a small suburb near feiacrity , and the drive wasnt far .

By the tthey arrived , the sun was still hanging low in the sky .

Stop here , Sienna directed him to a spot at the foot of the hill , Got it , Josiah said as he parked the car, then got

out to retrieve the flowers from the trunk .

He glanced up at the hillside and asked , Youre here to pay your respects to someone ? Yes , Sienna answered in

a subdued tone .
