The next morning Tan sits in the car with his mother avoiding eye contact. "Your father and I love each other" Shiela starts talking as she drives "I know you told the therapist you want us to get a divorce-""I've also told you guys a thousand times""But that's not what we want, Tan""That makes no sense to me!" he yells turning to her "all you ever do is fight! Every single day, no matter what time or where we are you guys find a reason to fight. Don't you hate each other-""We don't hate each other Tanner your father and I love each other""Then you have a funny fucking way of showing it""Watch your language.""Yep," he leans back in his seat crossing his arms."We're going to learn how to be good parents, Tanner" his mom's voice gets softer."Do you understand how sad it is to hear you say that? I'm 17 mom, you guys had 17 years to be good parents but weren't and you want to try now? Kinda too late""We were young when we had you Tan" she gets into the drop off lane "Scott was

'Hey... I'm sorry I made you mad enough to not want to be near me in class... I won't push. Whatever is going on between you and Lin isn't my business if you don't want to tell me. But Tan you have me now and I'm not going anywhere I'm just worried. I care about you so please call when you're ready to talk.'Tan reads the text from Sven as he's on the train heading to Harris's house, the pit in his stomach hurts, is it guilt? Of course, it's guilt, Tan isn't strong enough to go without Harris for long he needs this. But Sven doesn't deserve this and neither does Harris, let's hope Tan gets to that conclusion.Making it to Harris's he knocks to no response, he tries again and is ignored hearing Harris's muffled voice, Tan thinks to wait until Harris is ready to answer but his lack of patience gets the best of him. Grabbing the knob he doesn't expect for the door to be unlocked but to his surprise, he is able to walk right in."Listen to me we go to court on Monday if there is a surpris

It happened, his friends won't talk to him and Sven won't even look at him. Tan's screwed and he knows what the right thing to do is but he doesn't want to do it.Skipping the rest of the day Tan goes home to hide in his room, no one can hate him in his room he thinks as he climbs his bed with teary eyes. He can't tell Harris his friends figured it out that'll make him freak out, and if he remembers correctly he did warn Harris about this. No one knows Tan like Lin and eventually she would've figured it out. If he loses everyone then he'll have Harris, Harris has to be better than nothing, right?"Tanner?" He hears his dad call from the front door, wiping his eyes he walks out of his room "I just waited in front of your school for half an hour, what the hell?""And you just left me there? Why didn't you call?""Left you there? Tanner, you're standing right here! Why didn't you wait for me to pick you up? Are you skipping again?""No" Tan lies "school ended and I got a ride from someo

"Hey Teagan" Tan walks over to her desk as she gets up grabbing her bag "Hey""Harris in there?""No he's been in court all day should be back soon though, I'm done for the day""All right I'll just wait in there for him""Ok bye Tan.""See ya" he walks into Harris's office shutting the door. Staring at the man's sophisticated chair Tan gets the urge to sit in it, doing so he gets comfortable and starts to look around.Bored out of his mind, Tan paces waiting for Harris to come back. He looked through every drawer in the office even though Harris is a lawyer and snooping is probably illegal. He finally walks in and Tan stops walking "Tanner" he stops seeing Tan's face"Hi" Tan smiles nervously "took you long enough""Were you waiting for me?" Harris shuts the door walking to his desk dropping his briefcase and taking off his jacket."Yes I really needed to talk to you""All right" Harris sits in his chair behind his desk with Tan sitting in front of him."I know it's been almost 2 we

Tan rushes grabbing his cap and gown as Ronnie sits outside with the other girls anxious to graduate, "I'll see you guys at school!" He yells to his parents before walking out the door.Getting in the back seat next to Lin "were you planning on graduating today or next month?" Erica asks as they pull away"Shut up""Guys we're gonna be late, Principal Taylor will blow a fuse.""She'll be fine" Tan answers and they all ride to school. "ok so let's recap for the grad party tonight at Carrie Jensen's, is your brother still getting us booze, Erica?""Yes, he'll meet us at her house at 8""No we need it before we go in, we can't get in if we come empty handed""First of all I dare Carrie Jensen to not let me in her house, and we will have it, trust!"The last few months of school were not as easy for Tan and Sven as they were for everyone else, they didn't talk to each other not even in math. Tan still went to his JV games to support but Sven doesn't know. It broke Tan's heart when he star
