"Uhm… Alice, I think you're misunderstanding something. It's not that I forgot about you, it's just that—"
"Just what?"
…Shit.
My mind went blank. I couldn't come up with the right words to ease her. I'd gotten so used to the girls being in harmony—so used to their strange unity—that I assumed Alice wouldn't really get mad at me over these little things.
I thought she'd just brush it off with her usual laugh.
But right now?
The look in her eyes told me she wanted something more.
What should I even tell her?
I shook my head, forcing myself to look at her.
They say the best way to handle problems like this is honesty.
A happy Alice equals a happy me.
