Too Far to Say Far Enough: a Novel
“As for finding out the ending to Chief’s sentence, there wasn’t space for that either.
Monday morning I had to deliver Desmond for his first day of in-school suspension. He was cavalier about it in front of Flannery, but if she was grateful that he was taking a hit for her, she didn’t show it.
When we got to the school I had to walk him to the office and sign a document saying I understood that he would be separated from his schedule for three days and would be expected to do his work i...n a room across from Vice Principal Foo-Foo’s office. There were two other boys in there, both of whom looked like they ought to be on a chain gang, and a girl in a hooded sweatshirt with several holes in her nose where rings had obviously been removed for the occasion. Desmond plopped right down beside her, handsome smile fully operational. For once I was relieved. If this girl could take his mind off Flannery, I’d be happy to take her in as a foster child.MoreLess
