My brows pinch together. Sometimes my mouth can get ahead of me. “That’s not my fault. And, I’m not stopping what I’m doing because your merry band of idiots can’t stay out of trouble.”
Tequeela lunges for me. I draw back my fist, ready to fight as hard as I can. A sharp pain cuts across my face as we drop to the ground fighting. I’m twisting and turning, making it hard for her to grab hold of me. She grabs for my hair, and I swing my fist, hitting something hard.
We disconnect for a minute, then her sweaty arm closes around my head, drawing me close to her body. The way she’s holding me, I can’t really move. Plus deodorant isn’t her friend. I struggle to breathe and claw at her flesh with my nails, hoping the pain will make her release me. No such luck.
