CHAPTER 46

“WHAT THE HELL?” I SHOUTED, turning around. “This is the women’s bathroom, isn’t it, Reverend? You shouldn’t be in here.”

But Faulkner wasn’t apologetic or friendly. The slickness was gone as was his smile. He stared at me with icy eyes.

“Why are you here, young lady?” he said.

“Why do you think people go into bathrooms?”

My heart was still pounding. How long had he been standing there?

“I think you’re the one who needs to explain yourself,” I said.

“I saw you.” He shook his head. “Snooping around, down the hall, in the kitchen. Looking... everywhere. I’m beginning to think that you aren’t here for the meeting. So I’ll ask you again. Why are you here?”

I took in a breath, reminding myself why I was there. I needed to tone it down and get back into character.

“I’m sorry. I’m sorry if it looked that way. It was just that I was a little bored. It’s not that I’m not glad I came here tonight. It’s just that sometimes it’s hard for me to focus for so long. I needed to stretch my legs and walk around. I also wanted to check my phone. I didn’t know it was...”

But he wasn’t buying it. I could see it in his eyes.

“I better get back,” I said, flinging my backpack over my shoulder.

I brushed by Faulkner and made my way over to the circle where everyone had their heads down again, prayers floating around them like helium-filled balloons.

Time and a half fo sho.
