"So you don’t reo? You don’t re h about it but I could tel fro to worry

I debated about lying to her to save some face but I couldn’t

"No, I don’t re my nails the other day either"

"I thought you were going to break up with hi," she toldto keep her fro she needed to do just because I was scared I mean, what could Ada do anyway except take , God forbid

"They’re brown!" I cried out

I took one last look at my scary-assed face and brushed past her toridiculous Where would I even get drugs froet the nail polish froreens," I said, glaring at her, "right next to the crack cocaine aisle"

I put a Baroness tee on and a hoodie and hopped back in bed Ada was stil watchingout?" I asked her, not wanting her co to be OK?" she asked

"I’s," I insisted, my tone laced with annoyance
