Letitia stood in the doorway of her brother’s room, glaring at him.

“You’re dating who?” Letitia yelled.

“Elena. I believe you know who she is,” he replied calmly.

“She is the one person I hate most in the world! Of all the girls in the entire school, why her?”

“Why not? She’s cute, she’s smart and sexy.”

“I feel sick,” she said, covering her mouth as if she was about to vomit. Jay didn’t react.

“She is a piece of work. Right from under my nose, she goes for my brother. Unbelievable. I bet she did it just to spite me.”

“Letitia, this may surprise you, but this is not about you. I doubt Elena is a spiteful person and highly unlikely she is the type to go out with me to get you back. She’s not that conniving.”

“You don’t know her.”

“What is your problem with her, anyway?”

“She gets under my skin.”

“You mean she doesn’t worship the ground you walk on.”

“Shut up, Jay. You’ll learn your lesson the hard way. Look at how she has Sebastien wrapped around her finger. Those two are very tight, you know.”

“Yes I do know, Letitia, and she has the right to have friends.”

“Just friends? Is that what she told you?”

Jay just looked at her angrily, like a snake uncoiling.

“That’s not what I heard - and that’s coming from Frankie, who used to be friends with both of them.”

“Well, from what I heard about the party before summer, Frankie isn’t a very good friend, so I wouldn’t be holding out on what she says as being gospel.” He rose from the piano stool and walked towards her.

Letitia knew he wasn’t playing. “Back off, Letitia.”

She stared back at him defiantly, but could feel his anger rising and knew this was not the time to push him. She stormed off in a huff and slammed her bedroom door behind her.

She paced her room, clasping her hands. That Elena! How dare she? Letitia felt proud of her work to date. She had already made one lackey out of Elena’s friend Frankie, ruined the play of her other friend, kept Elena out of the show choir competition group and was making progress with Sebastien. But for Elena to date her brother? That was something she hadn’t counted on. She needed a new strategy.
