"I'm going to stare into his soul and make him wish he were back in his mommy's womb," you tell Addy.
"That's oddly specific and gross," they say.
When Caleb exits the diner he doesn't look over at first, so you call out his name. He turns to face you, and you glare at him.
"What?" he says, annoyed.
The glare doesn't seem to be working. "You're going to answer some questions," you tell him, but he laughs.
"Uh, not today I'm not. I've got somewhere to be."
He starts to walk over to his car, so you hurry to him before he can take off. "Tell me what's going on with Ennis. Why is she trying to send me off into the woods?"
"Why don't you ask her?" he says. "Or why don't you just go and see for yourself? Now get out of my face, I'm busy."
As he tries to close his car door after him, you grab it and force it open again. "Tell me!" you shout.
The people from school all go quiet and turn to stare. You can be sure news of this little interaction will get around fast.
"Or else what?" Caleb asks. "Do you think I'm scared of a weirdo like you? You're a pain to deal with, but nobody in their right mind would ever be afraid of you."
Caleb tugs at the car door and you let go so your fingers won't get smashed. "Have fun running around in the fog," he calls out of his window as he drives off.
"Come on, let's not wallow in our shame here," Addy says as they start Lloyd up again. "Maybe the others found something out. At the very least, we can draw on Caleb's photo in the yearbook to make you feel better."
