DASH AND EMERY WERE AT THE PARK.

Dash sat on the ground in front of the bench where Miguel, Demetri, and Aisha sat. He was playing with a piece of grass as Emery and Hawk were sparring with Bert. Miguel was telling the group about what happened when he had shown up at Sam's house. He had seen Sam and her family eating dinner with another boy. Miguel had instantly assumed that there was something going on. He assumed the worst, especially after talking to her at school about it when she avoided the topic of Miguel meeting her parents.

Aisha was staring down at her phone, scrolling through social media, and not paying attention to anything that Miguel was saying. It was obvious that the girl was tired of hearing him mope about Sam. If Dash was being honest, he was kind of tired of hearing him talking about Sam too. He had nothing against her, and she had always been nothing nice to him; he just didn't feel like constantly hearing about her and nothing else. There were plenty of other things that they could talk about, but Sam always seemed to be the topic of choice.

Dash looked up from the piece of grass in his hands and glanced at Demetri.

"Come on, eat something," Demetri told Miguel, trying to get him to eat a sandwich. "It'll make you feel better."

Miguel held the sandwich in his hands and stared down at it, playing with the plastic bag. "I told you I'm not hungry, man."

Demetri sighed. "I still think you're overreacting."

"I'm not overreacting, dude," Miguel insisted. "I know what I saw."

"All right, so you saw her eating dinner with some chode," Hawk responded, kicking Bert in the face.

Bert yelped as he fell to the grass. Emery held her hand out in front of the small boy, pulling him upright. Bert gave her a quick thanks as he adjusted his glasses.

"What the hell is a chode?" Emery asked, but she didn't get an answer.

"It's probably her brother or something," Hawk told Miguel as he and Emery started walking over to the bench.

"No, dude," Miguel said, shaking his head. "Brothers don't look at their sisters like that."

"Depends on what part of the country you're in," Demetri responded.

Dash turned to look at him with a disgusted look, hitting him on the leg. Demetri gave him an offended look, and Dash told him not to be an idiot.

"Look, I just don't want what happened to Sensei to happen to me," Miguel admitted.

"All right, so you go over to this kid and beat his ass so he doesn't have the chance," Hawk responded.

"Don't listen to Eli," Demetri said as Miguel shook his head.
