Chapter 109 Sleeping With Alina, Thinking Of Sheila
- Jace POV
- Alina walks stiffly ahead of me, her back straight, her shoulders tight as if she’s holding everything in. I follow a few paces behind, not saying anything. Ever time I try to catch up, she hastens her steps. I call her name, “Alina,” but she walks even faster. Up the steps her fast small legs take her until I give up and just walk at my own pace.
- I get it. She's mad at me. I’ve made a mess of everything again. Where's Jeremy when you need him? He'd have said something corny but funny to lighten up the mood.
