I was an asshole back then. Yeah. Not much has changed. Nora, I'm...
You probably don't remember this, but we met when we were really little. I was walking down the street, and a group of boys started throwing rocks at me.
They called me the maid's daughter. You stopped them. Um, I never thank you for that. So, thank you.
I'd been saving those words for awakening night. They were supposed to be a confession. Now go, Ryder. Now they were a goodbye.
I pushed the door another inch. We're really done. He held on for a few more seconds, then let go. Please don't come here again.
As the door closed. This place belongs to me and my mom. I saw his shoulders drop. I'd never seen him look that defeated.
School was starting soon. I thought I'd have some time to pack. Then Kyle called and told me to come with him to a family dinner. Right.
I still had a role to play as his girlfriend. He had a gown sent over. I'd never worn anything that expensive in my life. It didn't look like it belonged on me.
