Trouble Me: a Rosewood Novel
“The temptation to call in and request a substitute had been great. It had been years since she’d felt so sick at heart, so rotten to the depths of her soul.
But getting a substitute for the substitute teacher would only make her feel more like a pathetic loser. Besides, missing school was the easy way out. In her state of self-loathing, she wasn’t going to permit anything to be easy. And she was supposed to be starting a new unit in social studies on the first Americans. Being absent for that i...ntroductory lesson would put the rest of the week in disarray.
She hid her misery behind as carefree a demeanor as possible. For the most part she succeeded—except when Hayley raised her hand. Her usual cheerful self, Hayley and her intuitive comments widened the crack in Jade’s heart. More painful still was that Jade could now perceive so much of Rob in the little girl.
How was she to survive seeing Hayley every day and knowing that she’d destroyed the chance to be with both father and daughter?MoreLess
