Xvi
“The teacher didn’t notice the time difference on the pass—but Hal would’ve. After school I made sure Sal was nowhere in sight before I went outside to join Wei, Derek, and Mike.
“They know about Ed,” I told Wei.
“So, we’re all in this together.” She smiled at the guys.
“Yep.” Derek literally beamed at her.
A sigh of despair escaped me. I didn’t want Derek, but I wouldn’t mind being Wei for a while. I bet nothing even close to the hurt and humiliation I’d just endured would ever happen to her. I... couldn’t picture Wei running away from anyone or anything, let alone cowering in a restroom.
Turning my focus to the job of keeping Dee safe, I stuffed my Sal feelings deep inside, alongside the Ginnie tears that I refused to cry. Keeping all those emotions inside wasn’t easy, and the more I tamped them down, the harder it got.
We picked up Dee outside Dickens, and she, Wei, and I split off from the guys.
