Chapter NINE

  I dress in a baggy top and jeans. I decide to wear my hair down today. Fortunately for me, Don does not make an appearance; so to say I am happy is an understatement. I am elated. I eat breakfast conveniently and put on my locket before I head off to school.

  Surprisingly, I meet Jordan on my way to class.

  “Morning, Nala,” he greets, and I grin from ear to ear.

  “Morning, Jordan”

  “I see you love the locket”

  I nod in affirmation and glaze my fingertips across the necklace. He seems pleased with my answer.

  “How about we skip school, and talk?” Jordan grins mischievously, and I giggle.

  “Okay,” I say. Who needs school anyway?

  We quickly exit the school building, settling down at our secret spot. When we were still dating, we always came here anytime we wanted to skip classes. I throw my arms around him as soon as we sit.

  “I know something is wrong, Nala” he whispers, returning the hug. I can’t keep things from Jordan for a long time, he knows me too well.
