Chapter 9: Double Trouble

Jordan's POV

Jordan awakens at 8.30 a.m. from his messy bed. He gets dressed wearing a long-sleeved black pullover from his beloved NHL club, the Pittsburgh Penguins, light blue torn jeans, and white with red stripe sandshoes. He rushes out of his room and grabs a puffy, black jacket hanging from the end of his bed.

I felt terrible for Mona after yesterday night. She is going through a lot right now. And her giving up, she's so powerful and self-assured. I know she is only looking out for us. But I promised I would be there for her. I don't want to disturb her all the time is probably not a good idea. So I developed a plan. I'm heading back to the building Bailey and I had discovered to find out what they have in store for McGavin's industry as well as if Bingo killed Tarni.

He spikes his hair and walks into the living room, towards the door. Melissa, his mother, is cradling the cat in her arms while it purrs at her. "Where are you off to?" She inquires, intrigued. He grins, rolling his eyes awkwardly. He then turns around slowly. "All I'm doing is going for a walk." Melissa gives a nod. "Alright, no funny business." She says this while the cat hisses at him. He jerks his head back, frowning at the cat. He hastily opens the door and walks out.

Bailey's POV

Meanwhile, Bailey gets out of bed in his modest, wooden flat above Locusts Bar. He changes into black skinny pants and a grey shirt. He steps down the stairs in his black and white Converse hightops.

Last night, I couldn't sleep because of all that happened. I felt sorry for Mona. She has a lot on her plate right now, knowing she can see Tarni. She's in deep, hot water right about now.

Mischief is my middle name. I should not have responded the way I did last night in front of Mona, but Jordan isn't helping matters. That is why I have a plan. I'm going back and finding out what's going on once and for all. For Mona. For Tarni.

Mona's POV

Mona returns to her school and shuts her locker. She goes regretfully down the school stairs, past several of her classmates.

I felt miserable after last night. Grace always encouraged me to never give up. But now she's stating that certain problems are unfixable. I'm at a loss for what to do. Maybe this isn't the best solution, but I don't have any other options. Tarni hasn't been seen since last night. I sort of miss her. But perhaps it's best if she doesn't return. Seeing her only makes me more sad and envious of life. I haven't reached out to Jordan or Bailey. I guess I felt bad. And I am disappointed they constantly fight.  But, perhaps it's for the best. Until things die down.
