"Idon't expect you to accept it, much less forgive me, but what can I say?I'm really sorry. REALLY sorry." Huh!" she said and went on her way.I stood ...here, having poured my heart into those few words and was leftthere to stew. It could have been worse I suppose. She could have hit meor given me a mouthful of abuse, but instead, she just went "huh!" andleft me to it. How was I supposed to deal with that?I felt bad for the rest of the day, trying to hide in the shadows, keepmyself to myself and. You're just pretending to be human. You're going to take me to some place called Thepolies and then you're going to eat me."Eddie and Chelle didn't know what to say to that. They looked at Sarah in surprise.

"Oh, it was the last day of school on Friday, so we all coloured our hair in our house colours. I didn't get round to washing it out until last. Tell her how you feel. But, Chad, don’t do it right now,” Karena laughed. “Right now, she’s expecting a phone call. Don’t disappoint her, or me, or yourself.”After waiting for what seemed like forever, Reina’s phone finally rang. It was Chad, of course, calling her to his office for Task 9. He’d be sharing her with Karena and she was so excited she had barely been able to concentrate on her work all day.When she walked into the office, she saw that Chad was sitting in the couch, still. As I stood in front of the mirror brushing my hair I thought, maybe I should wear something else, this looks pretty daring for me to wear to dinner with a man other than my husband.

I was going to meet a man and have dinner with him, that was all.I arrived about a half hour before it was time to close the shop. I parked my car in the same parking lot Mona.
