CHAPTER 75 - What You Gonna Do About It?

  Ashley's POV;

  I'm walking through the hotel's alley, toward the room Gerald booked for us. The campus is still filled with a few folks who haven't left school yet.

  The school has given us an entire week before we're mandated to leave, and that is why I haven't gone home yet. If I am to be honest, I'm not even eager to go.

  First, I don't want to leave Gerald yet, and secondly, my mom said I have to pay aunt Lily a visit first before coming home, and I'm scared of doing that. Austin is there. I don't want to see him or talk to him. I'm trying to do the right thing, and seeing him would be a problem.

  Since I left, he has been calling me, sending me texts, and trying to reach out to me. All of which I never replied to. I need some time away from him. I don't like what's going on between us. I want it to stop. And for it to stop, I need to be away from him.
