Chloe couldn't bring herself to look him in the eye, so she lowered her head. Ever since Rachel had brought his diary to her, Chloe knew this day would come.
Chloe had been praying he wouldn't say it, that he would keep it to himself so they could stay friends. But no matter how much she prayed, the inevitable had happened. "I'm sorry, Quinn..." Chloe took several deep breaths before she could utter those words.

If you get stuck at customs, I won't be able to help you." Chloe glanced at the photo on her passport. She thought, "It looked awful!" She tossed it into her bag. "Don't worry, everything's settled."
As she left Bright Moon International, Chloe received a call from Admas, reminding her that it was Gigi's birthday today. She then remembered that Michael had mentioned it when she last visited Lotus Manor to pick up sbooks.
Since she was leaving tomorrow, Chloe decided to stop by the petm store to buy Gigi scanned food, chew toys, and other random dog supplies.
