Chapter 103

• Aria
• Finally, I pull up to the restaurant Aunt Esther works at. It's in some random suburb in New York. I push open the door and the scent of pancakes hits me. I'm starving. I look around and notice a few people scattered, minding their business, thank goddess. Aunt Esther works two part-time jobs…waitressing by day, receptionist by night.
• "Aria!" Aunt Esther calls out, and damn, that gets a few heads turning. I look around, confused, until I see her running toward me.
