Leslie and Tina are both inside, sitting around Cece’s desk. “Maddox? What are you doing here?” Leslie asks.
“Cece? Where is she?”
They both eye one another carefully, before Tina gives me a timid look. “I don’t think we’re supposed to—”
“Please!” I cry out. “Please, I need her to know.”
“Know what?”
“The truth.”
After another moment where they seem to be silently asking each other if they should tell me, Tina finally nods to Leslie. “She took the night off. She’s at home for a party her mom’s throwing.”
“Thanks!” I yell as I’m running out of the office.
