She also bought a cantaloupe.

I don’t try it.

OLIVIA

I try not to think about her.

It’s easier.

I might mow the lawn for when Dad gets here. I also should clean up the art room.

But I don’t think I will.

COLBY

Colby says, “You went to yoga?”

“Uh-huh.”

He’s on his bike and he’s weaving between things like a broom, a football helmet, and three Tootsie Rolls.

I’m sitting in the sprinklers.

“Yoga is stupid.”

“Kind of.”

“My mom is stupid.”

“Oh,” I say.

“It’s dumb she made you go.”

“It’s okay,” I say.

He keeps riding. And then he says, “Me and my dad told her you were okay but sometimes she just does whatever.”

“Oh,” I say.

I’m about to ask him about Dixie but then he crashes.

And he says, “Ooooooooooo,” and he is bleeding.

I get up to help him but he runs inside.

I try his bike and I don’t crash.
