Chapter 25


It was just getting light out. I sweating buckets, but it was cold so it felt good.

I didn’t really know what to do. I had a headache and I felt more depressed than ever before.

I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about what just happened. I thought about what he would say to Mrs Antolini when she saw that I was gone. I knew he would make something up though. He’s smart like that. I wondered if I was wrong in thinking he was making a pass at me.

I walked up to Fifth Avenue, but every time I stepped off the curb I ha a feeling I would never make it to the other side.

I saw Phoebe through this glass door, wearing my hunting hat. She had this suitcase with her. She wanted to run away with me. I tried to make her go back to school but she wouldn’t go. She ignored me after I kept telling her no. She wouldn’t even walk with me. Eventually she started to follow me and we ended up at this carousel. She went and hopped on it, so I just sat on the bench and watched her go round and round.
