Part 3, Chapter 28

Chiamaka runs out of the school, crying. The girl behind the Aces mask was the girl from the car accident, and Chiamaka has no idea how she is still alive. She realizes that she cannot find her cell phone and that she must have dropped it in the library. She eventually finds a payphone and calls Belle; they agree to meet at a Waffle Palace restaurant. Belle orders them a large ice cream sundae to share, but Chiamaka cannot eat it. She cries, and Belle comforts her. On Monday at school, Chiamaka tries to act “normal,” but she feels “like there’s a target on [her] back” (278). Belle is home sick with a cold, and Chiamaka feels alone. Devon finds her at her locker and insists that he needs to talk to her. He has not been able to contact her since she lost her phone in the library. Chiamaka agrees to meet him in the science lab. On her way there, Jamie confronts her, saying that he has seen a picture of her and Belle kissing. Chiamaka tells him that it is none of his business and leaves. She arrives in the science lab and tells Devon why she ran away last night.
