Helanie:
I sat up, watching her stare at my face and wait for my answer. I had been avoiding these questions back when we were at the beach because I didn't want to spoil anyone's mood. But there were times when I saw Jenny notice my body language and ask me if I was okay. I would give her my casual head nod and avoid eye contact.
But of course, she wasn't stupid and had noticed that something had switched in me after that cage incident.
"I really like you, Jenny. You know I befriended you and trusted you when you said nothing was going on between you and Gavin," I started as I recalled how we began our friendship in the first place.
"And there is nothing," she confirmed, but me shutting my eyes made her realize I wasn't done talking.
