Tam avoids me. I avoid her. Ellie’s still not back, but at least I have a lunch of cake to eat. All the food groups are present: vegetables in the carrot cake, fruit in the banana bread, grain in the lemon tart and dairy in the chocolate mousse. And I’m pretty sure there are almonds in the macaroons. So I’ve even got protein covered, too. Note to self: next time try not to eat five different sweets for lunch if you have to get through an afternoon of numeracy. It’s hard enough concentrating on fractions on a ‘peanut-butter-sandwich-for-lunch day’, but almost impossible when your body is trying to detox from fifty teaspoons of sugar. Now that I think about it, I can’t believe I’ve made it through a full week at this school and nothing has happened to me at all. I race out of class like I can’t wait for the weekend to start. Bridge invited me to stay over this weekend, but I said no. I still feel like I can’t desert Dad just yet.
