Jessica POV.
I woke up feeling refreshed and energized, the warmth of the Sunday morning sun streaming through my window. With no pressing obligations, I had a relaxing day ahead.
First things first, I decided to tackle my school supplies shopping at the mall. It was essential to get everything I needed before classes started. After that, I planned to visit Hilda, catching up on lost time.
But then, my mind drifted to my stepfamily. Had they expected me to visit yesterday? I flattened my lips, a hint of guilt creeping in. Maybe they had been looking forward to seeing me?
I weighed my options. Should I swing by their place to confirm? It would be polite, and perhaps ease any tension. But did I really want to deal with that today?
I tossed the idea around, undecided. Part of me wanted to avoid potential awkwardness, while another part felt obligated to make an appearance.
