Then right before I met Hazel outside, we walked and talked. "How are we to explain to Daisy?" she asked, holding my hand. "I don't know, Hazel." I told her. "I wish we knew how but we don't."

"Tell me what?" Daisy asked, peeking out of the corner. "OH, (swears)!" Hazel said. "Tell me what, Watson?" Daisy demanded. "Well, well..." Hazel said, letting go of my hand. Hazel told Daisy about the diary. "Oh, Watson? Why didn't you tell me?!" she said, hugging Hazel. "I didn't want to hurt you." Hazel told Daisy.

"Well, we don't know if it's true," I said, trying to comfort Daisy. She just scowled at me, so I added, "But it's very likely."

Hazel bumped me in the arm for that.

George was told about the diary the day we found out about it. Hazel looked into Daisy's eyes.

"I'm sorry, Daisy. But maybe it was self-defense. We don't know. But we do need to detect more and bail Marita out--if it ever comes to that--and tell the police."

We went home and I couldn't stop thinking about the big day when I had to kiss Hazel--in front of the crowd--and act like I was I enjoyed it, though, to be honest, I kind of would enjoy it. I've thought of kissing Hazel many times. But I don't see how Hazel loves me.

I just wish I had to courage to make my move.
