EVERYONE HIDES SOMETHING NADIA My father’s cell phone rings and he pulls it from his pocket and answers it. “I’m in the city now. No problem. See you soon.” He hangs up and looks at me. “Will you be okay here for an hour?”Finally. I’m miserable. My father introduced us to a handful of people, but it felt more like he was showing me off. It was so embarrassing. “I’ll be totally fine. Go.”He chuckles. “You’re making me feel unwelcome, Nadi.”“You are welcome here, just not when the world needs you,” I say, grinning. “Fair enough.” My father kisses my head and glides to the exit. He waves from the door and I release a breath when he disappears. “Are you sure we’re going to be safe without your dad here?” Jacqueline asks. Her hands tremble as she absently twirls the straw in her cup. Alyssa laughs from across the table. “I’d tell you if we weren’t. As of now, nothing is going to happen except someone is going to ask you to dance.”Jacqueline frowns.
