behind　the　gym　and　scalped　her？　I　decided　it　wasn't　fair　for　me　to　judge　her

now　by　my　former　opinion。

〃Ben's　got　the　stomach　flu；〃　Angela　said　in　her　quiet；　calm　voice。　〃Hopefully

it's　just　some　twenty…four

Angela　had　changed　her　hair；　too。　She'd　grown　out　her　layers。

〃What　did　you　two　do　this　weekend？〃　Jessica　asked；　not　sounding　as　if　she
