"Should we have brought something to cover your face? I would have joined you in covering up so you wouldn't be alone," said Rose.

"You want to make me the reason you get to hide. I don't mind the attention, Rose. Let them look," Zayne replied, looking ahead at the others instead of the crowd. "Some seem curious about you. You resemble your mother."

"I was hoping they wouldn't be curious. Anna was right that it was too soon but I wanted to explore. I," Rose paused when their hands touched. She was mistaken in thinking Zayne was trying to hold her hand to calm her. Their hands had only brushed against each other.
