chapter 22

A knock came on my door and soon Susan stepped in.

"Dinner's ready Angel, come on," Susan said waving her hand at me.

"I am not hungry, Susan," I said and closed the book.

"I know something is wrong with you, Angel," she said walking up to me, "You've been closed off since the morning."

"Nothing's wrong," I said immediately.

"Danzel's stupid, dear. He doesn't know how to behave when it comes to women, especially women like you. Don't mind his words; give him some time, he would surely make it up to you." She said smiling up at me.

"And about Vicky..." I continued but she cut me in.

"That girl is a bitch, Angel. She likes to fuck, that's all." She said getting angry at the name of Vicky. "She means nothing to him."

"Okay." I dragged out, "But I am not hungry; I had way too many sandwiches in the morning." I said trying to convince her.1

"Okay..." She nodded unconvincingly and left the room.
