章 98: It is time

　　BEN

　　The play is today. I’m not sure there’s a need for me to be there since the female lead is suspended. Whitney or someone else I don’t remember is the backup but it’s useless, she doesn’t recall her lines.

　　I will not embarrass myself in front of the whole school.

　　Who needs the play anyway? I only joined drama club to tease Gracie. I kick my tires until my foot screams in pain. I don’t want to think about that girl.

　　Donning my helmet, I start for Olivia’s house. She’s back home but confined to bed rest. That devil spawn isn’t home and won’t be back for about a week. I hope his parachute fails on his skydiving trip.

　　It will be fun to hear his screams as he falls to his death. He will experience the fear and the pain he put her through. I kill the engine when I’m in front of her house. Olivia is not coming for the play and I am missing my first class by coming here instead of being at school. School is not as fun without Gracie.
