“Okay.” Benita says, raising her hands up.
I give up. I don’t have the right to know, right Becca? Benita asks.
“It’s not that, Benita! Becca says.”
“Let’s talk.” Becca says and Benita inhales again.
“No, let us talk.” Peter says grabbing her hands and leading her out of the room.

Let me go! Becca says and yanks her hands away from him.
What do you want to say? She asks.
Is this it? You told me you had feelings for me just to let me go? Peter asks. Is that really what you are going to do?
And if it is? What do you want to do about it? You haven’t gotten over Ashley yet. Am I supposed to sacrifice my mental health
