Chapter Eleven- Cheese Fries

Once I recover from my breakdown and try to erase the evidence of it ever happening, with the help of Layla and her emergency make-up kit, we make our way out of the school and towards the parking lot where Karan texted Layla and told her they were waiting for us.

When we get to the car I notice Karan in the front seat and the passenger seat is left vacant for Layla.

I make my way to the backseat but before I can open the door Layla opens hers, "Get in",she says offering me her seat.

"No thank you", I say feeling awkward and bad for being an inconvenience.

"It's fine, I understand that you need your space.", she says trying to reason with me.

I get into the passenger seat and once Layla is packed in the back with the rest of the sardines, Karan reverses.

There is an awkward tension in the car, and i know everyone is dying to know what that breakdown was about and I can't offer them much information anyways.
