CHAPTER FORTY-SIX:
My ankle ached and I sat down on the ground giving it a rest. After some minutes of watching staff and firefighters crawl over the school in search of the source, I remembered my phone. I looked to see four back-to-back missed calls, from Jake? Why would he call me in the middle of the day? There were some texts too from Jake, and Evan, and even Nick.
>: Hey Rach, call me
>: Please. When you can. Or text
>: Hey there, just checking in. How are things? :)
>: Can you send up a flare or something to prove you’re alive?
I wrote back to Nick first and worked my way backwards.
>: Working on it
>: I’m alright, thanks. You can tell him to calm down lol
>: I’m okay. Sorry to have everyone worked up
My phone immediately buzzed. I read the new message
