Wow. I never expected anything like this. I look up to find Kiara glaring again. She’s also winding the end of her ponytail around and around her finger. She only does that when she’s tense. “Um…this one is really interesting. Who do you think wrote it?” I ask.

“How should I know? Since you’re so clever, why don’t you tell me?”

“No idea. I’ve never talked to any of them.”

She makes a weird little sound in her throat, like a muffled scream. When she speaks, her voice oozes sarcasm. “So that’s all you’ve got, Jane? Nothing?”

“Who do you want it to be?” I ask.

“I don’t know. Maybe Omar? But thanks to you, I can’t be sure. All I know is, whoever it is, he would be the one.”

“The one?”

“Don’t mock me, Jane. You’ve put me in a terrible predicament.”

“I think you put yourself there,” I reply.

“Oh, really? And how did I do that?”

I’ll have to explain it to her. “Okay. You said you like Omar and Liam. But how is that even possible? You don’t know them at all. You know nothing about who they are as people. Which is exactly how Sherry operates. And look where that got her.”

“I’m not Sherry! And I was trying to get to know them.” She shakes one of the quizzes at me. “With this.”

“But you went about it dishonestly. By trickery. I mean, again, look at this question about the importance of honesty.” I point to the fully answered quiz. “Whoever wrote this answer gets it. Without honesty in a relationship, there is no trust.”

“You know who doesn’t get that, Jane?” she hisses. “You! You don’t get it. You deceived me. So I don’t trust you anymore. You see?” She looks like she might cry. “I think you should go.”

“Kiara—”

“No. I mean it, Jane. We’re done.” She snatches the quiz from me and points at her bedroom door. “Leave. Now.”

She looks serious.

I try again. “But—”

“No buts! Get out of here. I’m sick of you and your superior attitude. The only reason I stayed friends with you so long is I felt sorry for you. Get out.”
