inside, at least to get Quinn checked in. She didn’t fly often
and it was nice having the support and Danica’s navigational

Danica tugged on Quinn’s arm. “We’re cutting it close as
is. We really need to find the counter where you need to check

was obviously stressed about Quinn missing her flight. “It’s
just that I don’t know if there’s any point to this,” Quinn said
in a rush.
“Any point?”
“Yeah. Any point.”
“I’m sorry, I don’t know what that means. Any point to

“Any point to any of it.” Quinn grabbed her bag’s handle.
She clenched her hand around it tightly and watched as her
knuckles and the veins in the back of her hand flexed and
stood out.
“I think it’s just early and you need a cup of coffee.”
