CHAPTER 16

Karter left for his afternoon shift at the bookshop, and I took the time to shower, turn up my music in the bathroom I didn’t have to share with anybody, and give my hair the attention it so desperately needed. Two hours and one full Beyoncé Homecoming routine later, my hair was detangled, conditioned, twisted, and sitting under a plastic cap. I was lotioned up and feeling like a whole new me. I swore to myself I’d never let Marie, or anybody else, catch me slippin’ ever again.

I found Mo in one of the bedrooms she was using as a makeshift office, with her dresser as a desk. Everything smelled like freshly washed sheets and potpourri. She set up her computer to do the billing and ordering, but she’d skipped her first scheduled trip back to the shop to help out because one of Mom’s other friends had volunteered to give Jake a hand.

“Hey, Mo. Do you have that email for your friend at the university? I wanted to ask her about some of the books I found.”

“Sorry, love,” said Mo. “I totally forgot.” She sent me a text with her email and went back to her bookkeeping.

I went to my room, opened my laptop, and wrote a short email to Professor Madeline Kent.
