Chapter 29 Birthday Gift (Anj‘s POV) Monday blues. I never thought I would experience a lack of passion for going to school. Anya always teased me that I was the only one excited to go to school and work, not understanding the feeling of Monday blues. Not today, though. When I woke up, I didn‘t realize I would feel sad not feeling the soft sheets of the bed, not inhaling the intoxicating scent of Sky beside me, and not waking up naked beside him.

She put my pin in my hair. “Sister Grace told me to put this on your hair. I really don‘t know why you want your crowning glory to be long, but you don‘t tie it,” she hissed. “If I get my chance, I‘ll cut it so you will lose your strength.“My, my, Delilah, go easy on her. If you cut her hair, she‘ll lose her brain,” Dylan chuckled, taking his cell phone and reading a message. I‘ll see you after class.I pouted and batted my eyelashes at him. “You‘re not attending microeconomics class?” I asked

He caressed my cheeks, causing me to blush. I have a more important thing to do than listen to Mr. Phil.”
