Chapter 26 Talk Of The Town

• Zoya’s P.O.V
• For breakfast, I had found that there was nothing I could get Sam to cook after all as there was nothing but a loaf of sliced bread in one of the cupboards. We shared that plain loaf, none of us complaining about its blandness because we were so hungry that we did not have it in us to do so. And now I was starving again, craving for a late lunch, so I announced my departure, only to let Sam know and not to ask for his permission, and went to start my car.
• It took a few tries before I managed to get the engine running, and soon, I was heading down the mountain back toward the main town area. I managed to find my way there without needing to call for Cam, which was a small victory in itself, so I gave myself a small pat in the back. “For that, I deserved to eat whatever best-seller they have,” I said to myself as I pulled up to the parking lot of a local diner.
