Aiden looked away from her out the window, "I just have this feeling that something's up," he said, not really talking to her. He looked back down at the letter and opened it:
Dear Aiden,
I have an answer for you. It's no. For now. I'm sitting here in the dark in my room writing this, wondering why I can't say yes. And I hate to admit it but it's because of Neo. As if that man hasn't taken enough from me now he's taking away the chance for me to move on. Maybe it wouldn't be with you but with anyone. I went to see him again last week. He's better. He still wants me back but I don't know. I'm planning on giving this to you after lunch. So don't forget to show up.
Aiden looked back at Stacey, "Do you know what this letter says?"
