“Welcome to school, where drama is currency and Zane is gold. And you, unfortunately, just got cashed in.” “I didn’t do anything wrong.” “You don’t have to. Zane and Amaya were the kind of messy that never dies. They broke up last semester, but half the school’s still obsessed with them. You accidentally walked into their fire.” “Great,” Maya muttered. “I just wanted to keep my head down.” Kennedy glanced around the room and leaned closer. “Then you better get used to ducking. Because the vultures are already circling.”

The Brooklyn family and the Murphy family—both known for their charity work—took us in and sponsored the two of us. I still remember the first time I saw Anna. She wore a fluffy pink princess dress with a tiny crown perched on her head. She looked like a porcelain doll—perfect and untouchable. I was too young then to know what it meant to feel inferior. All I knew was that she didn't belong in the dusty, muddy village we were standing in. And I was so dirty, so ordinary, I couldn't even lift my head to meet her eyes. After the Brooklyn family took me in, I ended up in the same school as Anna. She was beautiful, kind, and adored by everyone—teachers, classmates, anyone who met her.

I gag but I feel the same for Em so I can’t really say anything. “And thank fuck for that. I really thought I was going to have to compete.” “Never. But donuts always help.” “I know, love. I know.” “So movie? what should we watch.” I ask. Because I know what both the girls want to watch and that’ll just cause another fight, I just continue playing ‘Elite’ the Spanish murder mystery show on N*****x something the four of us have become obsessed with together. So much so we made a freaking pact none of us were allowed to watch it on our own, with our partners or with our best friends unless all four of us were in the room and present, ready to watch.

The drawing was crooked: a family of four, all smiling with their eyes squeezed shut. The waiting room was so quiet that the ticking clock on the wall sounded loud.

"Who's joking with you? Get out, or I'll call security." My hand froze in midair, and my mind went blank. I started replaying everything in my head, trying to figure out what I could have done wrong. But even when she actually pulled out her phone to call someone, I still had no idea. My breathing turned uneven, and I whispered, "Did I do something inappropriate? Is there some custom here I don't know about? I can apologize. Please don't be mad, okay?" She was marrying into a family from another state. The city we grew up in was over 600 miles away.

My smile widened. There was no point explaining it to him. His understanding was still confined to this small town. Little did he know that the current layoffs were just the tip of the iceberg compared to the national situation. Soon, this wave of layoffs would sweep the entire country. It would be too late to think about making a living by then. I decisively grabbed my personal belongings and my layoff notice, leaving the dormitory. Before I left, I saw the layoff list posted on the bulletin board. My name was on it.

Her face was red and twisted into a scowl. "Mary! I am here to take you home. Let's go," Faith said. Mary stood up and looked at Ally. "You called my sister? How could you? This is so embarrassing!" she cried. "Ally is just looking out for you, Mary. She said someone tried to take advantage of you," Faith said and tried to grab Mary's hand, but she slapped it away. "Don't! I am fine. I was having fun and talking to a cute guy, but Ally had to ruin it." She turned to Ally. "I thought you were my best friend!"
