Lila’s POV

My alarm went off at 7 a.m. on the dot. I almost took it and threw it across the room, but I knew today

was a very important day and I needed to be up early to prepare for it.

I certainly wasn’t prepared already despite Rachel and Becca hassling me about it.

“Wake up, sleepy head!” I heard Rachel say as she swung my bedroom door open and went to open the

curtains, allowing the bright rays of the sun to enter the dimly lit room. “We have a lot to do before the

elections this afternoon and we can’t waste any more time!”

I slid out of bed and went with her to the living room where Becca sat curled up on the couch. She had

a notebook and a pen on her lap, and she stared up at me eagerly.

Alex, who spent the night on the couch, sat on the island stool near the kitchen area, watching us like

he had better things to do with his time.

“We have to start thinking about your speech now. We literally have no more time,” Becca said as I sat

“I’ve just been so busy with other things, the speech didn’t seem to matter much,” I said with a shrug,

and I wasn’t sorry.

I’ve been busy with fundraisers, tutoring, and event/project planning. I barely had any time to think

about my speech. I did this all for the school and I wasn’t going to be made to feel sorry for that.

“Okay, so what kind of things should I talk about for this election?” I asked, staring at the blank

notebook.

“Well, we know Sarah is going to pretty much buy her way through this. Her speech is going to be

about all the things she can buy for the school. She’s going to flaunt her daddy’s money in everyone’s

faces and they are going to feed into it. So, you need to talk about something that money can’t buy,”

Rachel explained.

“Lila cares so much about this school and the little activities she does to make it better is proof of that,”

Becca said in return. “Everyone already knows that.”
