Chasing Orion
“seemed to continue. I mean life for Phyllis and for Emmett. He kept going over there. Not quite as much since the preseason basketball practice schedule had been stepped up. It always did in the few weeks before school began. I had preseason nothing. So there was no excuse for me not to go over to Phyllis’s, but I just couldn’t, not after what I had seen. Nobody had found out about my spying, which I supposed was good, but I felt somehow different.
