When Daani said the date, Jules deflated a bit, mild disappointment coursing through her. "Oh, that's the weekend of my birthday. Raziel has asked me to keep my calendar clear for it. He won't tell me what he's planned, though," she confided. Holi sounded so wonderful, and she regretted that she wouldn't be around to experience it this year. Not enough to cancel whatever plans her boyfriend had made, however. She wondered if it was something Raziel would be interested in. Maybe they would do it next year.
Jules nodded at that answer, thinking it made a lot of sense. She hoped that Daani would heal enough to be open to finding love again, and she was sure someone extraordinary was out there for her, even if it wasn't Manny, as a part of Daani still seemed to hope. "I understand. I think you'll find someone exceptionally wonderful once you're ready for it," she said encouragingly.
