Monday Matters

Nova’s POV

This morning when I got to school I signed Cassie in as a guest and she accompanied me to classes. They had to scan her ID and asked some questions, but she said she was thinking of staying with my family the second half of the school year because it’s lonely where she is on the base where it is just her and her father and she wou;d like to get a feel for the school. It’s not a total lie. Now that her parents are separated it is just her and her dad and he’s often busy with his duties. My Abulita said that if Uncle Mateo weren’t moving back she could stay in the other room in her Apartment. Mami said she is always welcome to stay with me. Cassie joked that my room will just become her room because she suspects I’ll be low-key moving in with Aldo before long. I might consider spending a night or two, but I don’t think I’ll be moving in with him, yet. I do miss him, already. I texted him this morning, but I won't get a chance to see him until he meets Cassie and I at Gin
