Chapter 110: Off they go
The confrontation was over, and a quiet moment settled over his small group, but Kofi knew there was one last thing to do, and he looked at the plastic grocery bag he was still holding, because it had the things Yuna had left behind in the supermarket.
’I have to give this to her, I can’t just keep it.’
His eyes looked through the students who were waiting to get on the buses, and he searched the crowd for one person. It was not difficult to find her, because she was standing alone at the very end of the line for the second bus, and she was far away from everyone else, and her headphones were on, so she was in her own world.
"I’ll be right back," he said to his friends, and started walking before Nina could ask him a question.
Nina watched him go, her arms crossed over her chest, ’Where is he going now? What is with him today?’ and Thea also watched him, her eyes following him as he walked toward the girl from the frozen food aisle. She felt a small, quiet curiosity.
He walked up behind Yuna and tapped her on the shoulder.
She jumped and spun around. She pulled her headphones down around her neck when she saw that it was him.
"What now?"
He held the plastic grocery bag out to her. "You forgot this."
She looked at the bag, then looked at his face. "I did not forget it, I abandoned it, so there is a difference."
"Well, the ice cream is melted, but the tea and the crackers are still good."
She let out a long sigh and snatched the bag from his hand. "Fine, are we done here?"
