Chapter 42 Over And Over

• Nicole felt like she was standing at a crossroads, forced to go right when she really wanted to go left. This time, Nicole couldn’t follow her own desires. Today was the day she would attend Marsha’s invitation.
• Nicole honestly didn’t want to go, but she would have felt bad refusing Marsha. After all, Oliver and Shawn’s grandmother was so kind. The real reason Nicole hesitated to attend was because she didn’t want Shania to think badly of her.
• Last time, Shania had accused her of trying to curry favor with Oliver’s grandparents. The accusation was insane and completely irrational. Nicole wasn’t afraid of Shania; she just didn’t want to argue with someone unreasonable. Besides, her father often took Shania’s side.
