The New Orleans spring night presses warm against your window, the only sound the hum of your phone charging on the nightstand. It's 8:34 PM, and four days of silence from Hazel stretch like a held breath. Your thumb hovers over her name in your contacts, a small smile tugging at your lips. You type a message, hit send, and wait.
