He waves a hand. “Hey.”
Katy greets him, then nods at Mrs. Katherine before her eyes land on me and finally on the mountains of food stacked on the table. She gasps. “Justin, did you bring all this?”
Before I can even answer, she rushes over, and peeks into every bowl like a kid in a candy store. She grabs one and holds it up to Allison. “You’re not hungry anymore, right?”
Allison shakes her head, and Katy—completely shameless—plops into a chair and digs in. Sometimes, she’s really clueless.
Silence falls across the room, and I can feel Allison’s gaze on me. My mind’s racing for ways to get David out without starting a scene, when Katy finally breaks the quiet.
“David, why did you stop hanging out with Alls?” She asks, her mouth full. “I actually thought you dropped out.”
