Chapter 17: Trouble In Paradise
Today is the day. The BIG day, to be exact. It’s Della’s 31st birthday party today. Although Della only sent the invite to Toni, she invited all of the sisters to come, including Desi. For the past couple of days, Desi had been questioning the invite. She was excited at the first thought of it. Especially when her and her sisters began making plans and discussing what their costumes were going to be. But then, she thought about it. She and Lady hadn’t spoken to nor seen each other, outside of school. It was inevitable that they couldn’t escape each other at school but, to be around each other? In a public setting? Desi had been having anxiety off and on, for the past week, just thinking about it. Then, she would think about Darren and how she missed him so much. She had to get her man back. So, she decided to go. For the millionth time.
