"We just have to survive finals first," Zoe muttered before yawning.
Alyssa felt that same exhaustion. Studying wore her down so much. She constantly needed a pick-me-up to keep her going.
"I think I need another coffee. Anybody want anything?" Alyssa asked, figuring they all needed a little boost to finish off their study session. It was starting to get late, but they still had so much left to do. She looked between them. "Latte? Green tea?"
"You know me so well," Elias said warmly.
"Make that an iced macchiato," Zoe replied.
"You got it," Alyssa replied before standing and leaving the small study room. She walked down the steps toward the café, but she paused before she walked inside. She couldn't stop thinking about her parents and Thanksgiving. If she didn't go home and try for a peaceful holiday, she would be in her room all alone.
