Instead of answering her mother, Hanna ignored her and acted as if she wasn't even there. She stomped up the stairwell and headed for her bedroom. Hanna opened the door and walked over to her queen bed. She laid down face first into a pillow and began sobbing. The tears came out of nowhere. When she tried to stop, they just kept coming.

Hanna started to calm down. She got up and looked at herself in the mirror. She was a mess. Her eyes were red and puffy. Mascara was smeared around her eyes and down her face. She began cleaning herself up and then she heard a knock on her door. Hanna quickly dried her face and wiped the smeared make up of with a tissue. She didn't want anyone to know she was crying.

"Come in," Hanna softly yelled.

Hanna's mother opened the door and walked in. She didn't look very happy. She moved over to her daughter and stood in front of her, with her arms crossed.

"Excuse me, but I believe you have some explaining to do."

"I've been with Caleb. And by the way, you don't need to worry about me. I'm not five. I can take care of myself," Hanna snickered.

"Don't talk to me like that! I am your mother and I will worry about you whether you like it or not."

Ali was ease dropping outside the door. She entered the room and acted as if she didn't know what was going on.

"Oh Hanna, you're home."

Hanna's mother turned to Ali, "I don't mean to be rude, but I'm trying to have a conversation with Hanna. I don't want you to get involved and have to listen to this."

"I understand Mrs. Marin. I'll just go downstairs."

Alison left the room and Hanna and her mother were alone again.

Hanna's mother turned back to Hanna, "Next time, at least tell me where you are."

"Okay, I will. I'm sorry for yelling at you." Hanna was calm now. She felt bad for yelling at her mother, but she's been dealing with a lot lately.

"I accept your apology. Can you do me a favor?"

"Yeah, sure. What is it?"

"I need you to go to the Brew and get me a tuna wrap. I would go myself, but I have a bunch of things that I need to do."

Hanna stood there, frozen. Going back to The Brew means she has to see Zack again.

"Do I have to? I'm not really feeling that well." Hanna was feeling fine. She just needed an excuse so she didn't have to go to the Brew and run into that creep.

"Yes, you have to."

Hanna looked as if she was about to cry, again. She has no way out of this.

"Okay, I'll go."

Hanna had to force herself to get her keys and purse. On her way out the door she shouted, "I'll be back soon."

At The Brew

Hanna got out of her car and slowly made her way to the entrance. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Then she opened the door and walked inside.

Before going up to the counter to place her order, Hanna noticed that Zack wasn't around. She sighed with relief. "Maybe he had a day off," she thought. Hanna walked up to the counter and waited to order.

"May I help you?" asked a brown haired boy. He looked strangely familiar to Hanna. She could have seen him before around school, but she wasn't sure. Asking him would probably make her sound weird, so she just decided to order.

"Can I have one tuna wrap, to go."

"Okay, that'll be $4.95."

Hanna handed him the money and stepped to the side to wait. Five minutes passed and then her order was ready. She grabbed the wrap and turned to leave. After turning, she accidentally bumped into someone. She glanced up and saw that tt was Zack.

"Hello Hanna. Nice to see you again." Zack smirked.

"Uh, Hi. Sorry for bumping into you." The look on her face was unpleasant. "I guess he didn't have a day off," Hanna thought to herself.

"It's not a problem."

"Okay, well I guess I better go. I have to give this to my mom." Hanna was holding up the to go bag.

Zack glanced around to make sure nobody was looking. Since no one was paying attention, he quickly slipped a piece of paper into her back pocket.

"There, now you can go."

Hanna was way past feeling uncomfortable. She ran out of The Brew and went to her car as fast she could. Before entering the car, she looked behind her to make sure she wasn't being followed.

Since she was safe, she got in the car, put the keys in the ignition, and went home. A few minutes passed and then Hanna remembered that Zack slipped a note into her pocket, but she has no idea what it says. She'll have to read it in order to find out.

Hanna parked her car in the driveway. She was going to read the note before going inside. She pulled the piece of paper out of her pocket and held it in her hands.

It read:

Meet me at The Brew at closing time. If you don't come, I'll come find you.

Hanna crumpled up the note. She didn't know what to do. She didn't want to meet him, but if she doesn't go to him, he'll come to her. "This is starting to get too far. I need to do something and put a stop to it."

Hanna realized that it was time to tell someone about Zack. She already had someone in mind, Caleb. He is someone she trusts and she knows he'll believe her.

Hanna went inside her house to give her mother what she asked for.

"Mom, mom. I'm back." Hanna shouted.

Hanna's mother came over from the kitchen. Hanna handed her the wrap.

She smiled, "Thank you."

Hanna turned around to go back out, but before she could her mother stopped her.

"Where are you going?" her mother asked.

"I'm going to see Caleb. I'll be back later." Hanna really wanted to tell her mother about what has been going on with Zack, but she felt like she wouldn't believe her.

"Okay, try not to be back too late."

"Alright. I'll try."

Hanna went to Caleb's apartment

Hanna knocked on the door and waited for him to answer it. A minute later the door opened and there was Caleb. He looked surprised to see her.

"I didn't know you were coming over, but come in." Caleb gestured.

Hanna entered and sat down one of his white sofas. Caleb closed the door and then sat across from her.

"It's a little messy around here." Caleb looked embarassed. "I would of cleaned up if I knew you were coming over."

"Sorry. I decided on the last minute." Hanna had no idea what she was going to say about Zack, or where to start.

Noticing that Hanna seemed anxious, Caleb asked, "Is something wrong?"

"Yes, I have something to tell you."

"Go ahead, whenever you ready." Caleb sat up and was ready to listen.
