A quiet, bookish student adopts a tough bully persona to protect herself in a hostile school environment. Her carefully constructed act is thrown into question when she discovers the person she has been told to target is not who she expected.
The next morning, I went to school with dark circles under my eyes. Mason pushed the breakfast he had brought toward me. What were you doing last night? You look exhausted. I took a long sip of milk thinking about you Mason nearly choked on his sandwich
after coughing for a while thinking about what you I spent all night thinking about how to make it up to you and I finally figured it out oh so that's what you meant what else would I mean nothing so how are you gonna make it up to me come here I'll tell you quietly he immediately tensed his whole
face turning red what are you doing come on I can't say this out loud the way I want to make it up to you might be a little offensive so I'm not sure if you'll agree how offensive it'll be a little forced and once we start you You can't ask me to stop.
Why are you so red? Is it too hot? Miss Stray Day, you're into that kind of thing? That's why I wanted to tell you quietly. It's kind of a lot to ask.
And I don't think our relationship is quite there yet. Give me a second to mentally prepare.
