Chapter 112 Avoiding Him

• For the past hour my best friend has been here, she has not failed to remind me about the man next door. He’s trying and I’m…well, I’m not.
• I fall flat on my back to the bed, arms and feet spread wide open. Amelia grunts but stays out of my way. Squinting at the ceiling, seconds roll by without me talking. Eventually, she will have to drop this topic because I have nothing to say to her or Calum. A pillow comes down on my face, once, twice and a third time before I jump.
