Chapter 16

Chris had begun to drown out Jade's incessant talking and instead daydreamed about Lily. "Chris? Christopher!" Jade said as she touched the male's shoulder, which made him flinch instantly. "Oh, I'm sorry. I got a little sidetracked," Chris said shyly, as he forced himself to focus on their conversation once again.

"It's okay, I know I'm boring you. It's alright if you go to your appointment, your mind is already there. I'll explain to your father," Jade said with a smile. "I don't want to leave you here alone, it's not right. I'm sorry, I promise I'll pay more attention," Chris said stubbornly as guilt flooded his system.
