Ugly Duckling
chapter thirty-two;
"Where are you going, hun?"
"A friend's."
Nora Robert's house. Is there a problem?
Awkward silence.
Jesse stopped chomping her gum and stared at me, "You don't have friends."
Mom told her to shut up.
Bill buried himself in his book.
I shot Jesse a glance before replying, "I made a friend. It's not that big a deal."
"It is. Who is it?" That came from Jesse, of course.
I shrugged, gave mom a quick kiss on the cheek, and ran outside with my bag slung over my shoulder.
All I knew then was that if Jesse found out where I was going, she'd kill me.
Kill.
Me.
And that is exactly why she wasn't going to find out.
At least that's what I thought.
