Chapter 23

"How is this supposed to work? Us in different time zones, when I have so much to tell you all the time!"

"No one told you to go to school abroad, Pen" I reply as I'm walking to my last class of the day, "what time is it there anyway?"

"2 am, but anyway tell me more about this guy on your baseball team," I texted her a little bit about him last night before I slept while she was at school.

"His name's Gentry—"

"That's such a cute name! Is he cute?" Is Gentry cute? That's a loaded question because I mean on the surface, yeah, but he isn't just cute he's— "hello... Shane?" She snaps me out of my thought

"Yeah, I'm here and... I don't know all right, I can't answer that yet" "Ok well you said he was nice"

"He's really nice but I don't know, I'm just trying to make a friend so I'm doing my best not to like him or feel anything when it comes to him."

"Good luck with that, never takes much for you" "Shut up you don't know me!"
