"Zack!" I exploded. "He's what's wrong! That stupid - stupid - nutter has been avoiding me and he won't tell me why!" "You're not British; you better not use British terms," Anthony advised. He was sitting next to me in the backseats. "It makes you sound like a wannabe," Tristan called back to me. From the passenger's seat, Eva turned around to glare at Anthony, then fixed Tristan with an angry star
