But he wasn’t going to give in to anyone’s satisfaction —- not even his own. Not her, unwavering curiosity or even his ,feigned effervescent demeanor he had about zero point five seconds ago. He was just spacing out; how much he wanted to emphasize that not everything had been about her.
“ So .. did you hear roger klotz is in detention and by the looks of it, it looks like a solid two weeks ? wonder what HE did. “ it was a lame attempt at trying his hand at gossip, but if it wasn’t obvious , he was talking about reggie mantle.
