79 ~°~Chapter Seventy-nine~°~

"Oh hi, darling." My mom greets me at the door to my Grammy's house. "Shana, Maggie is waiting for you in the second receiving room, where's Virgil and Dale?" She frowns.

I clench my teeth at her question. "They said they'll be by later." I say nonchalantly even though there's a bruise on my heart.

Nicole and Julia had shown up this morning that they were all going on a double date, it was while we were eating breakfast and I didn't even wait a moment to see Virgil's blank expression or Dale's guilty eyes, I just made my way up the stairs to cry to Apple.

"Okay, see you all later." Shana waves, making her way across the room.

"Hayden? Are you okay?" My mom asks in worry and even though I want to tell her, I decide to not tell her.

Shana had said really hurtful things to them this morning and even though I'm also mad at them it hurt too, knowing my mom she'll definitely do worse.
