After distracting Kevin from the chips, Brittany again looked for Daria. She soon found her in a corner. ‘Of course!’ She went over to her. “Daria?”
Daria started. “Eap!”
‘Oops!’ Brittany thought. She didn’t think Daria would easily be frightened. “Sorry!”
“Oh, Brittany,” Daria said with her hand over her heart. I thought it might have been that Chuck!”
“You mean, Upchuck?”
“How apt! Yes!”
“Sorry that you had to encounter him here!” Brittany said.
“It wasn’t your fault.”
“Actually…” Brittany said awkwardly.
“What?” Daria interrupted.
“He did me a favor too,” Brittany admitted.
“So, you invited him,” Daria concluded. She could see why Brittany was apologetic.
Brittany nodded.
“I think I have had enough,” Daria said. She leaned against the wall and slid down to a sitting position.
“You want to leave?”
“Yes,” Daria said. “Could you make sure Quinn doesn’t cause trouble?”
“Maybe,” Brittany answered. “But how are you going to get home?”
“I’m not sure.”
“Some of the others have older brothers or sisters. They could help.”
“That would be good,” Daria said. “But be quick.”
“Of course.”
( Brittany found Mack and Jodie again. )
