Chapter 86 Arvin Must Feel Sad (1/2)
”What am I doing?” squawked Lulu. ”I'm trying to get past. Why are you getting the way?” Lulu focused her disapproval on Angela and slipped two pairs of disposable slippers on the ground for her and Nita.
Angela tried to mellow her painful arm by rubbing it. 'Take it easy, ' she reminded herself. 'She's only Arvin's sister. Don't get mad. Take a breather.'
When the entry was sealed shut, Lulu stood in front of Angela, browsing her pajamas up and down. ”It boggles me why you think you could ever hold a candle to Nita. You're a little girl. When I see Arvin I'm going to ask him, 'Why let this riffraff in?'

Arvin sensed something wrong outside. He turned off the faucet and heard the hullabaloo. He dried and dressed quickly.
He held the doorknob, but decided to listen quietly first. He smiled as he listened to Angela's dissonant clamor.
Actually, he changed his mind, and decided to let the histrionics play themselves out.
”Wow!” said Lulu, eyebrows raised in stupefaction. ”Then, tell us, whose princess are you?” The cornered expression returned to Angela's face.
All this was Nita's doing, she supposed. But she had no proof.
Nita, as it turned out, had tried to get some dirt on Angela by hiring someone to tai
“Do you still want to run away after what happened last night?”
Their relationship changes overnight. She tries to keep her distance from him, while he comes closer and closer.
