Josh nodded. "Well, you gonna get in the car or what?"
I stayed where I was, crossing my arms over my chest. Why was he being such a jerk? I stood my ground, waiting for an apology. Normally, I wouldn't bother or care, but this wasn't him. I wasn't going to put up with it.
He sighed, rolling his eyes. Michelle chuckled. "I think she's mad at you. If I were you, I'd apologize."
His eyes narrowed. "Why? I didn't do anything. Besides, I'm not doing anything if she can't talk about it."
I bit my lip, choking on tears. He frowned, but didn't say anything. "I think she thinks you're being a jerk, Josh. I really think you should apologize."
"Psssh," Josh rolled his eyes again, sighing in annoyance. "And who are you to 'translate', huh?"
Michelle's jaw tightened and she rolled her shoulders back. "I was her best friend before and after she went mute, so I've known her a lot longer than you have."
