Blind

Letting go of Zoren Pierson for today shouldn't be a problem. After all, Penny already had some information about him. There were still chances of meeting him, and if there were no chances, she would make one for herself.

"Penny?"

"Huh?" Penny snapped out of her trance and turned to the front-row seat.

Nina smiled awkwardly and said, "We already drove past Auntie's and Mom's restaurant."

"Oh." Penny's lips formed an "o" shape and refocused her attention on the road. "Right. Sorry."

As Penny slowed down to make a turn for another several-minute drive, Nina studied her.

"Penny, is everything okay?" Nina asked worriedly. "You seemed distracted."

"Yes, I'm okay. Just a lot of things on my mind."

"Are you sure?"

Penny cast her a sidelong glance when she was back in the proper lane. 'No, actually,' was what she wanted to say.
