Rika and I started to get things ready for Zaley's sleepover early in the day. I knew that my little sister wasn't a very sociable person, so she had never even thought about a party like this before. Even me, hyper focused on getting through school early and all that, had had my fair share of sleepovers. I had invited Ada, Missy, Jackie, and a few other girls from school. I hadn't had these sleepovers all the time, but I had had them more than once. And I always had fun during them.
Now, it was time for Rika and I to help Zaley have a great sleepover. We needed to take care of our little sister and show her that there was a lot of good in the world. She had been bullied and picked on for things that weren't her fault. I always stopped the bullies when I could, but I wasn't in the same part of the school as her anymore. And that meant that I wasn't able to protect her as much.
