“Athena, I’m fi—”
“No, you’re not!” she snapped, her shout punctuated by hand smacking countertop. “Your best friend died two weeks ago and you happen to knock yourself out cold, alone on a weekend? Apollo—”

Athena Cykes was determined to resolve the aftermath, no matter how tumultuous the road to resolution; whether Apollo Justice was willing to accept it or not.
