Kapitel 519: Maybe, Next Year

“Ashleigh, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about,” Alice said. “Actually, it’s kind of two things.”

Ashleigh let out an exasperated sigh. The conversation had worked her up and then drained her of her energy.

“What is it?”

“Here,” Alice said, holding her hand out.

Ashleigh looked in Alice’s palm, where a pin sat. She thought it was hers, but it seemed slightly different.

“What is that?” Ashleigh asked.

“An upgrade,” Alice replied.

“What do you mean?” Ashleigh asked, taking it and looking closer at it.

“I had a few gadgets when I switched teams,” Alice replied. “During my stay in Summer, Nessa and I discussed a few of them. We got the idea of how to make some improvements to the current model of your pin.”

Ashleigh furrowed her brow and looked up at Alice.

“I didn’t hear anything about this,” she said.
