The day continued to crawl by, but that was expected when you sit in bed counting the seconds.
Mireh tried listening to the CDs she bought last night, but they were too upbeat for her. They were the sorts of songs she'd listen to while cleaning or doing her homework or going out for the occasional jog. Not the sorts of songs she'd listen to while her best friend was on the other side of town, ready to die.
Any second now.
Mireh didn't text Retta all morning, but as soon as noon rolled around, she gave in and texted her, asking how she was enjoying her day with her parents.
