Chapter 46: Chapter 46

Austin

"How is she?" I ask Miles through the phone.

"Nervous. Just dropped her off a few minutes ago and she is barely knocking on the door now. She started giving herself a damn pep talk."

I chuckle at my girls' crazy behavior and tell Miles to keep me updated. As I hang up the phone, I think back to last night at Candice's mood as soon as Jesse left. Even when we go home last night she seemed off. I tried to get her to talk to me, but she just kept telling me she was nervous about speaking with her mom today. I don't want to push her too far, I know her mom and grandmother are her only family, but I wish she'd be open and honest with me. I know that wasn't the only thing bothering her.
