He looked at her and replied, “I called your school to give you the day off. You can sleep in if you want.”

She pulled the sheets closer, feeling shy and embarrassed. Her voice was barely audible as she responded, “I… It’s okay. I can go to school.”

Tyler left the decision to her, “Alright, it’s up to you. I did that thinking you might want to sleep more.”
