Chapter 118
"I have to tell him." He says after a while. I jolt my head upwards in shock.
"You can't!"
"I have to."
"Howard, you can't!"
"If I don't tell him, you have to."
"But he'll get really angry!"
"I'm sure he won't."
"He will, he always does."
"Just don't tell him, Howard, please."
"I'm sorry, Vince. I have to." He says. I don't reply. He goes back to sitting there, just watching me.
After a while, he speaks again.
"Come on. Let me have a look so I can sort you out." He puts his hand on my arm and I jump away like I've been burned. He looks hurt. "Vince-"
"No! You don't want to help, you just want to get me in trouble! Just leave me alone!"
"Vince, I do want to help." I stand up. He copies me. "Please, please let me help." Pushing him away, I run.
I run into the bathroom. Slamming the door behind me I fall against it, breathing heavily. I don't know what to do. I can't stay in here forever. But if I go out, Naboo's going to be really angry. Howard will be, too. I don't know what to do.
