After school, Shiloh walked home with me. We took the long way, past the Dollar General so we could go inside and buy a candy bar.
I didn't have any money, so Shiloh bought me a Hershey's bar. As we walked out, I saw Mason Philips across the street with two of his friends.
They spotted us and came running over. "This you girlfriend, Myers?" I kept my eyes on the ground.
"Hey. He's talkin' to you."
"Why don't you all go piss off?" Shiloh said.
Mason pushed her backwards. "Excuse me? Why don't yah watch yah mouth, girl?"
Shiloh stood up. "Why don't you stop being a bitch?"
She slapped him.
