Capítulo 42: Chapter 42

Skylar's POV

As much as I hated the thought of going to school the next day, I did go. Mainly because mom came over, dad too. And I didn't want to make things more awkward between us.

So I took the bus again.

"Hey." I spoke up softly as I sat down beside Hanna. Mrs. Jackson hadn't arrived yet and the classroom wasn't yet brimming with the usual morning chatters. During this time, I usually talked with Alex. But Alex wasn't here now; he didn't come to school today-at least that's what I wanted to believe.

"Hi." She replied, facing me with a small smile. It was the concerned look on her face that made me unable to speak, or do anything else. I just stuck with placing my textbook in front of me, avoiding her gaze, and waiting for her to speak up the obvious question.

"Did you see Alex anywhere?" She asked after a while.
