Chapter 45

• Returning home was one of the things I liked most about this job, but for some reason, it no longer felt the same. Coming to my apartment was depressing, cold, and lonely. Sometimes I preferred to go to Jona's house and spend the day there, or simply go to a crowded place and watch people being happy.
• Debbie was with me in the apartment. She had waited for me to celebrate my victory. I... honestly didn't want to be with anyone, but I had promised myself to change, to go back to being the same as before, and maybe with Debbie, I could achieve that.
• "Congratulations, Hayden," Debbie said, smiling.
