9 HOURS LATER

i stand in front of a mansion. a literal mansion.

to be fair, nancy warned me when she texted me el's address, telling me to not waste time staring at el's house, but her advice slips my mind when i stare at the extravagant home before me. as my gaze sweeps across the house, my ears catch a chorus of laughs, coming from the second story.

two girls, one of them sounding a lot like the girl i spent the majority of the last month obsessing over.

i release a long breath, clutching a wrapped box in one of my shaking hands. after a moment, i finally take a step forward, inching towards el and away from the uber that's already speeding away.
