ZANE
Valeria was avoiding me.
If I had only been suspicious before, now I was certain.
Today marks the third day of which I have seen neither hide nor hair of her. Of course, this wasn’t that unusual in her case considering how I have been witness to her staying cooped up in her room for days, neglecting to eat while working on her music.
Eventually, I had to step in and personally deliver her meals to her room.
However, when I asked Arlo about her yesterday, I was told she usually comes down to eat breakfast after I leave for work.
If that doesn’t make it glaringly obvious that she was avoiding me—especially when it had become the norm for us to eat breakfast together—I don’t know what will.
But let’s say that the first and second day were nothing but coincidences; today happens to be the third day, so I will verify in person whether it's indeed a coincidence or a deliberate avoidance, like I suspect!
