At the lunch tables. Karla had her head down as she covered her face with both hands 'What am I going to do?
Sammy gave me until the end of the day to tell Jaya. But I didn't even have the guts to see him in first period.
This is the first time that I've ever missed class. I've had perfect attendance since the day I first started going to middle school.
What am I even doing? I'm going to have to talk to him sooner or later..... But I just can't do it! Urghhhh.'
One of the girls at the table looked at Karla "You okay? I thought the whole being sick thing was just an excuse to ditch first period."
Karla raised her head and did her best to smile like usual "Sorry, I was feeling a little under the weather this morning but I'm starting to feel better."
Another girl joined in "Well, at least you're feeling better." She then looked to her left and then to her right before leaning in across the table toward Karla.
