On The Outside Looking In (Wrong Reasons) - Plot & Excerpts
I had no plans. I had to work Saturday morning so I had no intention of going to any of the few parties in which I’d been invited. I was sure that I wouldn’t be missed as the invitations had come more from politeness than eagerness for me to attend. Thursday night, I took a shift at Beans for one of the girls who needed the evening off to help decorate her sorority house for their bash. I didn’t mind as I was caught up on coursework and wanted the extra spending money for the upcoming holidays. As my shift was ending, I walked around the sitting area, wiping down tables, glancing out the tall windows at the darkness enveloping the city. I hadn’t heard much from Irelyn and Bailey since the night at Bailey’s house. Irelyn called me twice with updates and I’d spotted Bailey across campus several times, but we were both headed in different directions and hadn’t had time to chat. Loneliness crept into my heart, especially as the days grew shorter and the temperature dropped. I spent more and more time in my apartment, watching reruns of old sitcoms and studying on my laptop. Even Evan hadn’t come in or called.
