Chapter 24: Through the Fence
Cass's POV
The chain-link fence behind St. Brendan's ran along the back lot, past the dumpsters and the swing set, and I had climbed it twice at fifteen.
I stood at it now at four in the afternoon in my Carhartt jacket with a bag of granola bars in my pocket.
It was Wednesday, and the day was gray and wet.
I told myself I'd stay five minutes.
On the swing set, three girls in navy uniform skirts were doing nothing, because they had been told to be quiet.
One of them looked up, saw me, and stopped swinging.
She was small and eleven, with a missing front tooth and a braid done in a hurry.
She got off the swing, walked to the fence, and stood on the other side of it with her fingers hooked through the wire.
"Are you Cass?" she said.
"Yeah."
"I used the office phone," she said.
