Summary
Rumi's world ended the night her hands first ignited, along with everything she'd ever known. Haunted by a past she barely understands, now she's learning to live with a power she never asked for, one that burns as much as it protects. At the Charles Xavier Institute for Gifted Youngsters, she finds unexpected allies in Mira and Zoey. Mira, a telepath, and Zoey, who possesses the ability to phase through solid matter, become Rumi’s primary connections to a world she no longer recognizes. But as Rumi slowly begins to trust again, a new danger closes in on the school, one that threatens not just her fragile new home, but everything she's trying to become.

Summary
Moving back to America was hard, Zoey knew it would be. But her life in Seoul is over now, by choice. Her new position as a paramedic will be great, it has to be. Even if it means dealing with an obnoxiously attractive doctor with a chip on her shoulder and a firefighter with a saviour complex.
It’s fine, it will totally be fine.

Summary
Rumi would disappear for long stretches, returning with damp hair as though she had stood under cold water. She wore long sleeves even in the humid practice rooms, and sometimes her hands trembled when she tried to lace up her boots, and refused help when either Mira or Zoey offered.
Zoey finally caught on to the truth the night she woke up for water. She noticed the faint glow of the shared bathroom light under the door. The penthouse was silent otherwise. She hesitated, then pushed the door open to find Rumi curled up on the cold tile floor, arms wrapped tight around herself. Her cheek was pressed against the porcelain, strands of hair plastered to her face. She didn’t even startle when Zoey stepped inside, didn’t look. Her eyes were glued ahead, unfocused and glossy.
“Rumi?” Zoey whispered, “what are you doin’ in here?”

Summary
Bobby shifted where he stood, ran his hand through his hair took a deep breath.
Then turned to face them and asked.“Is there anything, or anyone that can harm us in the next” he glanced at his phone “two minutes before the car gets here?”
Rumi shook her head “No.”
“Okay. Next, will whatever managed to get you to turn on each other this evening be able to do it again.”
Rumi froze, but Zoey and Mira both answered loudly, almost shouting “No!”
“Perfect. Last one, is there any hurt, be it medical or emotional, that cannot with a nights sleep, basic first aid, and the frankly ungodly amount of snacks I am about to order, be healed or delayed until morning?”
Rumi laughed despite her self. “I think that covers most of it Bobby.”Or
The song ends, the girls embrace, the honmoon is back. But questions remain. What do they do now? Can they explain what just happened? How do they unpack all of those feelings? They just shared a lot with each other, can they learn to love the flaws together? If this is why Rumi wouldn't go to the bathhouse can we go like, now? How is Bobby so chill? And what did Rumi do with Jinu's soul anyway?- Language:
