Grace Winter's grandmother is aware of Hayes Edwards and knows about their childhood friendship, but she doesn't harbor overly favorable impressions of him. She keeps advising Grace not to judge people based on initial feelings.
Afar across the ocean, Hayes Edwards is unaware that he too needs to be viewed with caution.
He's still pondering where to take Grace this summer vacation, or perhaps visit her and also meet her grandmother.
A semester slowly passes by in their calls and text messages.
Hayes wants to finish all his tasks and free up an entire vacation to spend with Grace.
Meanwhile, Grace buys a ticket to return home.
Having experience from last time, this time Grace is much more adept upon returning. She doesn't go straight home but chooses to visit the province where Hayes's university is located.
She hasn't told Hayes, planning to surprise him.
