" What do I do now?" Cody asked."Do you still care about my sister?" I asked. Cody shook his head yes. "Good. What are you going to do to fix things b...tween the two of you?" I ... I don't know," Cody said. I could see he was trying to hold back tears.Penny knocked at my door and said, "Can you come out for a minute, Kyle. We need to talk."I met Penny in the hallway.
