I’ve never told anyone this, so I’ll know it was you if it gets out.
Zayne
You have my word, Dot
Me
Sometimes I feel like a fraud.
If it weren’t for my dad, I probably wouldn’t even want to go to college.
I’m in way too deep now though
I’m worried if I don’t get into an Ivy school, all his hard work will be for nothing
Zayne
Do you really think your dad would feel that way?
Me
Probably.
Zayne
What about your mom?
Me
I have no idea if she’s even in her right mind.
I haven’t seen her since the summer before school started, when I met Carlton.
Zayne
That’s when you met him?
Me
Yeah. He was on his way to Rue’s house. She lives on my street, and as he was passing by, he saw me crying on the roof.
Zayne
You were on the roof?
Me
Yeah. LOL
Silly, I know
But I didn’t want my dad or my brother to see me cry.
So I figured the roof was safe
Zayne
What were you crying about?
