“Oh my god!”
Someone gasped and shouted, “Look over there!”
Heads turned. All eyes locked on Sierra, groveling before Halsey.
“Why is she groveling?”
“Who even is she?”
“I think she’s that new transfer student, Sierra. | heard her family’s in rough shape. A few days ago, her
gambling dad showed up here, making a scene. He was trying to sell her off to sold guy for money.”
“That's awful! Poor girl.”
“But why’s she groveling? Let's go check it out.”
Students started gathering around.
Halsey had no choice but to stop walking and turn back toward Sierra.
Zada was stunned. She rushed forward and tried to pull Sierra up. “What are you doing? There are so
many people here! Why embarrass yourself like this? Get up before everyone laughs at you!”
But Sierra knew this was her chance. After failing to win Shaun over and ending up in the hospital, she
wasn't about to let things slide. She wanted to stir things up and get skind of advantage from Halsey.
She pinched herself hard, forcing tears to spill from her eyes. “It's okay, Zada. It's my fault. | did wrong. |
should grovel before Halsey.”
Zada's face darkened as she glared at Halsey. “Haven't you had enough? You should learn to forgive. Why
are you picking on Sierra?”

Halsey almost laughed at the absurdity. “Did | ever ask you to grovel?”
Through her sobs, Sierra said, “No, you didn’t make me, | wanted to. | hurt you. This is all my fault.”
The crowd buzzed.
“Sierra, what happened?”
“Did you and Halsey have skind of misunderstanding?”
Tears streamed down Sierra's face as she spoke. “Halsey is my best friend. When my dad chere and tried to
dragaway to marry an old man, she tookin and letstay at her place.”
The students murmured among themselves.

fiancé. He hitin the head with a bottle, and | ended up in the hospital. But Halsey thought | was

“What?!”
The students gasped and turned to Halsey in shock.
“I think you misunderstood Sierra.”
“Her life is awful enough. | doubt she’d ever do something like that.”
“If it’s just a misunderstanding. You guys should clear it up and go back to being friends.”
Everyone started urging Halsey to make peace.

She was provoking Halsey.
Even though Sierra hadn’t managed to hook Shaun, she could still make Halsey’s life miserable.
Halsey let out a cold laugh. “Looks like | really did misunderstand you. You should get up.”
Sierra's face lit up. “So you forgive me?”
