“I was standing there dressed like Santa, trying to get to my next class on time, and she was yelling at me about how I’m selfish and don’t care about her feelings. Everyone who walked by was looking at us like we were crazy.”
    It sounded like a scene from a bad movie. I would be laughing if I saw it on TV, but unfortunately, it really happened.
    â€œSo what did you do?”
    â€œI told her we were done. Then I walked off, changed clothes, and went to class.”
    That explains Brynn’s bad mood.

Considering things from another perspective
    I don’t want to keep thinking about Brynn, but I’m having a hard time not thinking about her. How do you just stop thinking about someone you’ve been best friends with since kindergarten? Even though I’ve had it with her, we’ve been friends so long, I feel like I should try to put myself in her shoes.
    She’s mad at me because she thinks the problems with Billy started when Sophie moved to town. She thinks Sophie likes Billy, and I didn’t do anything to stop it. But the truth is that even if Sophie does like him, what am I supposed to do? Tell her to feel differently? Refuse to be friends unless she changes her mind?
    Brynn knows it doesn’t work that way, so it’s kind of unfair that she’s mad at me because of how Sophie might (or might not) be feeling.
    For that matter, how does Sophie feel about Billy? And vice versa? When Sophie first moved here, Billy was really sweet about her being the new girl. He introduced her to a lot of people, especially during the Student Government campaign, which I have to admit was a little surprising since he was running against her.
    It was even more surprising that Sophie ran for SGA. In her old school in New York, she’d never done anything like that. I know how upset Brynn was when Sophie and Billy were elected as the ninth grade reps.
    But still, just because Billy was nice to the new girl or they do the same activity doesn’t mean they like each other. Honestly, I think a big part of Brynn’s issue is that Sophie is so pretty. Brynn is too. She has a body like a model. But there’s something special about Sophie. A lot of people would say it’s her long dark hair and pale skin. But I think what makes her so threatening to Brynn is that Sophie’s so interesting and different.
    So if I’m looking at this from Brynn’s perspective (which given how she’s acted lately, isn’t easy to do), I get why she’s worried. Billy broke up with her, and she thinks it’s because of Sophie. Still, that doesn’t give her license to act like a crazy-jealous person.
    OMG! I think I’m overlooking a critical point.
    Maybe Brynn isn’t acting.

Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.

Pondering important questions
    I keep wondering why Billy broke up with Brynn. I mean, I know why he said he broke up with her. But I wonder if there’s a little more to it. Does he like Sophie? And for that matter, does Sophie like Billy?
    I was asking myself those questions all afternoon, and with good reason.
    After school, Sophie and I went to watch May’s soccer game. Mom and Dad had told me earlier in the week that neither of them were going to be able to go, so I’d planned in advance for Sophie to come with me. I hadn’t told anyone else we were going, which is why I was surprised when Billy showed up.
    â€œHey,” I said. “How’d you know May had a game?”
    â€œSophie told me,” he said as he sat down beside her. He passed us the bag of peanuts he had. I took a handful, cracked one open and popped it in my mouth. Then I looked at Sophie.
    â€œI must have mentioned it at the SGA meeting this morning.” She shrugged like it was no big deal. But as she dug into the peanut bag, I noticed she blushed a little.
