Where did Logan say he was going to be today?
Running her hand up under Logan’s pillow, she felt the jab of something pointed and hard. She pushed the pillow aside and curled her hand around the brightly coloured paper thing and brought it in for closer inspection. Her lips curved when she finally recognised what it was: a folded-up paper parasol, the kind they put in cocktails. She’d asked for one once.
And Logan had remembered.
Evie rolled over on her back and popped the parasol and twirled it between her fingers before tucking it behind her ear.

‘Atta girl, Evie,’ she whispered by way of a pep talk. ‘Concentrate on those.’
There were five more hellos over the next two and a half months.
