After class, Frankie goes to her locker to return her books, when Cole comes up to her.
"Hello, Cole Reyes, I cannot wait for our mini golf game tomorrow."
"Me too. I was talking to Tammy earlier, she thinks you're...a robot. Isn't that hilarious?"
Frankie stares at Cole with her normal black stare, not knowing what to say.
"Frankie did you not hear me. Tell me there is not some truth to it."
"I hear you Cole Reyes, and I do not think it is hilarious. I heard something about Tammy Gilroy that I do not think I should repeat. But I can tell you that she confessed to being the one who try to pour the water on me at the dance. Ms. Hough heard her say it. That is why I do not think she was missing from last period. "
"What really that is not cool. I know that she is competitive, but to try to embarrass you like that is not nice at all."
"I agree. What Tammy Gilroy, and her friends did was not okay, but I forgive them."
"Of course you do Frankie. Because you are a good person." Cole's cheeks get flushed, and Frankie can tell that he is gearing up to say something else.
"You are also a good person Cole Reyes, and a really great friend." Cole's head turns down.
"Thank you Frankie, see you tomorrow."
