“Thank you for the ride, Iris! See you on Monday!” Monica said while waving as she and Josh got off at the waiting shed near the university. “Take care, both of you! See you too!” I waved back before driving away. I had so much fun today—way more than I expected, considering the crowd, the noise, and the possibility of catching germs. Honestly, none of those things even crossed my mind earlier. I just really had a great time. Not just watching the game, but also being with Monica and the others. All my life, Elona has been my only friend. It’s not like I never tried making friends or socializing with other people—I did. But it never ended well. I stopped by a cake shop on the way. I don’t really know how to comfort people, but maybe this will help lift Garett and the boys’ spirits aft
