Entry 15

Everything is much better now than it was when I wrote my last entry.  I ended up in the hospital, but was well enough to go back to school after 2 weeks.  I got pretty mad at Digby, though.  It turned out that he lied to me and was working for the Millers (Marina's family) the whole time.  They were paying him $100,000 for finding Marina and he never told me about it.  He was going to share the money with Henry and I, but I was so angry that I told him to keep it.  Zillah and Ezekiel both got put in federal prison, so we won't have to deal with them again.  I also seem to have a new celebrity status at school, and people, including Sloane, are treating me a little better than they used to.
I found out that Digby lied to me about something else.  He doesn't even go to our school and he had me fooled the entire time.  He just told me that he skips most of the time and he actually went to one of my classes with me one time.  Apparently he lives in Texas with his dad and is a crazy genius.  He is homeschooled, but has already finished all of this and next year's material.  He gives a lecture at the Edgar Allan Poe Appreciation Society's annual conference in Baltimore. I guess I really didn't know anything about Digby after all.  He used the money for good things, too.  He bought me a new laptop because mine got destroyed, paid off his mom's mortgage, and paid the limo bill from prom night. I found out that he was going to leave town soon to go talk to Ezekiel about his sister.  In a panic, I went to the bus station in hopes that he would still be there, and he was.  We talked for a little while, and then he gave me access to a house that my dad bought in the Upper West side- "just in case my dad ever messes with my mom while he's gone".  Awesome, right?  He gets on the bus and is about to leave and then he gets off and kisses me! Then, he gets back on the bus, it pulls away, and he's gone.
