Grounded (Out of the Box book 4)
“Augustus As soon as Sienna dropped me off, I was stalking down the street, my phone in hand. I wanted to have a conversation, and I didn’t want to do it in public or anywhere Sienna could hear me. I watched her fly off into the sky, and once I was sure she was far enough away, I dialed Taneshia and listened to it ring.
And heard Alicia Keys’s “This Girl is On Fire” blare out somewhere in the crowd behind me.
I turned as I felt my skin crawl like it wanted to shed me, chills running up and down even as the sun beat on me. I caught a glimpse of Taneshia, a flash of jet-black hair as she shoved her way through the crowd assembled outside my house. I didn’t have to wonder too hard about why she was hiding, why she wasn’t sitting on the back of the ambulance with Momma.
I went after her. Not too fast, not too slow. I didn’t knock people over, linebacker my way through them. I pushed gently, said sorry, excused myself.
