#Chapter 114 – Boarding the plane.

Lila’s POV “Lila, darling, what’s going on?” My mother asked as she came into my room. I could hear the party continuing down the stairs, though it was growing late in the evening, and most were heading home. Becca and Brody are each set up in one of the guest rooms and I had said goodbye to Brianna a little while ago. Only Bri knew the real reason why I was upset, but for the most part, I quietly went up the stairs and headed to bed. I hoped nobody would notice my absence, but my mother did. “I guess I’m just not feeling too well,” I told her, curling up in my bed and pressing my knees close to my chest. It was taking everything I had not to cry. She frowned and walked toward me; with one quick motion, she pressed the back of her hand against my forehead for a moment. “You don’t feel warm,” she said thoughtfully. “Do you want me to bring you some tea?” “No, I’m okay,” I assured her. “I’m just going to get some sleep.” “Is it because you’re nervous about your trip?”
