On Johnny's Terms

Cynthia knows it's outrageous to ask Jonathan's help when they haven't spoken a civil word in the fourteen years since she was sixteen. Yet she's just flown across the country to find him, trying to find the right words all through the four-hour flight.

She didn't call to say she was coming, so he won't be expecting her. He certainly won't smile when he sees her, or when she announces, "I came to ask you for money."

She's desperate for the money, for her brother. But is she desperate enough to accept Johnny's terms?
