Then, a police officer approached Mya, “We need you to testify about the suspect. Could you comewith us to the station?”
Mya nodded, “Okay. Madelyn, I’m heading out.”
Madelyn replied, “Take care.”
Mya hesitated, “I’m nervous about going alone, Madelyn.”
Before Madelyn could respond, Kevin jumped in, “Don’t worry, Ms. Jent. I’ll accompany her. I havesome business there anyway.”
Madelyn said, “Thanks, Kevin. Just make sure she’s safe.”
Kevin replied, “Of course.”

Madelyn fixed her dress and looked away, “It’s been a long time since I had a drink.”
He rolled up his sleeves and held out the glass, “Just a sip?”
She shook her head, “I’m allergic to alcohol.”
She used to drink to forget her problems, always taking an allergy pill beforehand. Zach lookedsurprised. He had not known about her alcohol allergy.
“Why didn’t you mention this earlier?”
“It just never came up.”

Around the same time, Jadie wassick with a fever. After making sure Madelyn was treated, Zach rushed to care for Jadie, and Madelynwas left alone in the hospital.
Zach quickly drained his glass of red wine, “From now on, I’ll support you in not drinking.”
Madelyn peered out the car window, arms folded, “You don’t need to change anything. This is myissue.”
Silence filled the car.
