"Enough! Stop yelling already, I'm exhausted!" James snapped, cutting off both Alex and Grace.
Without sparing either of them a glance, James turned and walked straight back into his room, slamming the door shut behind him.
Grace stared at the door, fuming. She shot Alex a sharp look, stomped her foot in frustration, and stormed upstairs.
Ever since James found out it was his own mother who had set Emily up, he couldn't bring himself to be anywhere near her. He didn't even share a room with her anymore.
This made Grace panic, but the situation was still fresh. For now, she didn't dare go to James's room uninvited. She figured she'd have to take things one step at a time. And now Alex just had to make things worse. Ugh, what a mess.
