The Breaking Point of Love

Feeling embarrassed, Celeste’s face flushed immediately. She adjusted the collar that Shanice had tugged..

As they were talking, a car slowly approached them.

Celeste didn’t notice the car at first. The car’s backseat window gradually rolled down, and Shanice poked her head out of the window. She waved at Celeste. “Goodbye, Ms. Rodriguez!”

She gave Shanice a faint smile. “Goodbye, Shanice.”
