STORM
Justin's expression took a detour down the sad side when he heard Storm's last statement.
What? Had she been wrong in making that statement? Storm took her lips in. But she never wants to burden anyone with her troubles. What was so bad about that? She wondered, deciding to keep quiet and wait for her friend to speak after he collected his thoughts, whatever it was that he was ruminating on.
"Whenever it seems we are making a headway in our friendship, you just come up with things like this. What exactly is your problem, Storm?" Justin queried, taking his hands from the table and folding them across his chest, his face anything but happy.
Nice one, Storm. You just pissed off someone that could help you escape the clutches of your stepmother.
"What do you mean Justin? You know this is the way I am, the way I am wired…" She was still explaining but he thought it wise to cut her off.
