Love with Nowhere to Go

Summary

1.

The day before Eason's birthday, I gave him a call.

I faked a sigh, telling him my dance company’s rehearsal schedule was just too packed for me to fly out to Boston.

His voice was flat. "It's fine. I'm busy anyway."

The next afternoon, the moment my final showcase at the academy was over, I jumped into an Uber heading for the airport.

Of course, I had lied to him.

I had been there for every single one of Eason’s birthdays since elementary school. Why would this year be any different?
