Chapter 37 - Arrived

Lucas raised an eyebrow. "YoChat?"

Cindy pulled out her phone and waved it in the air with a cheeky grin. "Yep! You know the app, right? Give me your ID so I can text you or… send you pictures of the disastrous brownies I'll probably end up baking later."

Lucas let out a small chuckle, the tension in his chest easing slightly. "Sure, hand me your phone."

Taking the phone from her, he quickly typed in his YoChat ID and passed it back. Cindy glanced at the screen, her smile widening as she locked eyes with Lucas again.

"Done! Don't forget to reply to my texts later, okay? And… be careful on your trip tomorrow, Lucas. I mean it, stay safe."

Lucas nodded sincerely. "Thanks, Cindy. I'll let you know as soon as I get there."

Cindy gave a playful salute, her fingers pressed against her forehead like a soldier bidding farewell. "Alright, Mr. Lucas. Safe travels!"
