Her Favorite problem

Nami Bennett could get anyone to listen.

Teachers hated her.

Students followed her.

And Robin Stuart would do almost anything she asked.

One afternoon, Wanya Zepeda watched from a distance as Nami held out a fork and ordered Robin to eat.

When Robin finally listened, Nami smiled and said,

"Good girl."

The moment should have meant nothing.

Just another ordinary afternoon.

Just another glimpse of the school's most infamous troublemaker and the girl who followed her everywhere.

But years later, Wanya would find herself remembering that exact moment.

Because somehow, somewhere along the way, the girl who told everyone what to do became the girl looking to Wanya for every answer.

And sometimes Wanya couldn't help but wonder:

Was it all planned?

Or did it just happen?
