I knew that Zoe was mad at me. I knew that she was very mad at me for trying to change something that she didn't want to experience back again. As I was thinking about my next line of action, my ex, Sam Kaplan knocked at the door of my apartment. "Stella! It is Sam. Are you around?" I felt a bit awkward because I wasn't ready to accept any visitors by this time, but it was Sam, my ex. What could I do? "I am coming," I said to Sam as I quickly put on my dress and rushed to open the door for him. I hurried to the door, my heart pounding. It had been months since Sam and I had broken up, and his unexpected visit stirred a mix of emotions within me. As I turned the doorknob, I took a deep breath, unsure of what to expect. "Hey, Sam," I said, opening the door to reveal his familiar face.
