Page 40

 

  Kenji makes a strange noise.

  Winston looks at his watch.

  Adam can’t stop smiling.

  He and I follow Kenji and Winston out of the room, but Adam pauses to slip off my left glove. He takes my hand. Intertwines our fingers. Offers me a smile that manages to kiss my heart.

  And I look around.

  Flex my fist.

  Touch the material hugging my skin.

  I feel incredible. My bones feel rejuvenated; my skin feels vibrant, healthy. I take big lungfuls of air and savor the taste.

  Things are changing, but this time I’m not afraid. This time I know who I am. This time I’ve made the right choice and I’m fighting for the right team. I feel safe. Confident.

  Excited, even.

  Because this time?

  I’m ready.
