Chapter Eleven

Camila walked out ofone of the stalls, stopped suddenly, and stared at her friend.“Mandy?”

Her friend laughed and hugged her tightly.

Camila closed her eyes and hung on for a long time.“What are you doing here?”

Mandy leaned back.“Is there any place we can talk privately?”

“Sure.Let’s go into the family room,” Camila said.“Are you hungry?”

“Not yet.”

Camila looked at her as they made their way back to the house.She laced her arm through Mandy’s.“Is everything okay?”she asked, worried.

Mandy smiled at her.“Stop worrying.”

Camila couldn’t help worrying.Her friend had never just shown up before.

They walked into the room, and she closed the door.They both took a seat on the sofa and faced each other.

Camila took her hand.“Tell me.”

“I’m here for you,” Mandy said.

Camila was confused.“For me?”

“Yes, Drake called.He’s really worried about you.”

“So, he asked you to come?”

Mandy nodded.“I know you’re happy to see me, but I can still tell something’s bothering you.”

Camila looked down.

Mandy squeezed her hand.“He told me about your sisters being here.”

Camila nodded.“Yeah.It was awful.I never want to see them again.”

“What happened, Camila?”

Camila looked away and could feel the searing sting of tears fill her eyes.
