Silence stretches from the lockers to the sinks. Katie’s laugh slices through it. “Behind the bridge.”
“Thank you, Katie,” I say, walking over to my locker, tossing my makeup bag inside, and slamming it shut with more force than necessary. Before I stomp out, I pin Anna with a blistering glare. “Don’t worry, I’ll find out whether he prefers blonds, brunettes, or even gingers.” Not waiting for her reply, I switch my wrath to bra-and-panties chick. “And what did you want to know again? Whether he gets off on pulling hair? I’ll ask on your behalf, don’t worry.” I pretend to scratch my head in thought, ignoring the way her jaw drops open. “Oh, what was the other question you had? If he’s into choking, right?”
“I didn’t say—”
“Yes, that was it. Choking and spitting into girls’ mouths. Got it. I’ll report back. Toodles!”
I give an enthusiastic wave over my shoulder as I stride toward the door, ignoring the breathy “Wait!” coming from behind me.
Out in the hallway, I lean against the wall and take a deep breath. Christ, maybe there’s a For Dummies book on how to deal with mean girls in the workplace without getting fired.
One thing’s for sure; I won’t be sharing a pair of Levi’s with these girls over a long summer.
