Chapter Seven

On the bus ride home I replay the appointment in my head. It went pretty much as I expected—except for the birth-control prescription. I wasn’t ready for that. But I understand why Dr. Abernathy assumed I needed it. A girl doesn’t get pregnant by holding hands. I shove the piece of paper to the bottom of my pack and get back to worrying about Jen.

I arrive at my locker way before the start of afternoon classes. Lately I’ve been avoiding people, but today I have no choice. I need to talk to her. The thing is, she doesn’t show. She isn’t there at the end of the day either, and I wonder if she’s been at school at all. I ask the girl with the locker on the other side of hers. She says Jen was there in the morning.

Maybe she went home sick or had an afternoon appointment of some kind or a field trip. I consider calling her on her cell, but what I have to say isn’t something I want to share over the phone.
