I feel ready to flip the table over.
My phone screen lights up.
And I see Mila’s name.
I’m not sure how that’s supposed to make me feel…
Then I read the text she sent.
Jax… I need to see you RIGHT NOW.
26
JAX
Mila shows up to Willow’s in just seconds. Literally.
As though she’s been standing out in the hallway.
I’m not sure if she knew I was there or not…
Mila looks flustered. Very flustered.
She rushes right by me to the table where I had been sitting.
Mila spins around and looks at me.
Willow steps out of her bedroom. “Hey, good news. Oh, Mila. You’re here. I didn’t know you were showing up.”
“I needed to see Jax,” Mila says. “Alone…”
Willow looks at me.
“How did the doc call go?” I ask.
“Fine. Everything is fine. All the test results came back negative.”
“So no baby?”
“What?” Mila cries out.
“Ignore him,” Willow says. “He’s an idiot. Um… I’m going to go for a walk. I could use a walk. That’s cool, right?”
“I’m kicking you out of your own dorm,” Mila says.
Then she whispers, “My life is a giant fucking mess…”
Willow looks at her phone. “Oh… look at this…”
She puts the phone to her ear.
It’s obviously not a real phone call.
“Yeah,” Willow says in a fake voice. “Yeah, sure. I’m going for a walk. I can talk. Sure.”
Willow rushes out of her dorm.
I’m left alone with Mila.
