Chapter 25

"Well, apparently Dexter accepted the medication and finally opened up. That was only two days ago, and everyone is still wary about any progress."

"Did he say anything about it?"

"Thank God," I muttered.

"You know, I need to tell you-Dexter does care for you a lot."

Crap, where did this come from? I felt the usual warmth rising in my body. I wanted to forget about him and move on with my new life. Dexter said some crushing things to me, things that I couldn't simply forget.
