can I call you Jeffrey at least? That is your whole name, right?”
    â€œNo.”
    â€œCan I call you that anyway?”
    â€œNo.” I gotta get out of here . People were starting to seriously gawk.
    â€œFine, we’ll work on the name later. We have so much to do !” And then, I kid you not, she started bouncing up and down on her toes.
    â€œStop!” No, really, for the love of all that is holy, stop . I held up both hands. “Who are you?”
    I’m not sure what made me ask—a name to put on the restraining order, maybe?—but she gestured to herself like she was a celebrity I should recognize instantly. Maybe she was—this was Santa Monica, after all. “Kimberlee Schaffer? The Kimberlee Schaffer?”
    I shrugged.
    She sighed dramatically. “Come with me.” I followed her down a hallway and into the main foyer, where she backed up against a wall and gave me a cheesy, toothy grimace—more sarcasm than smile. She gestured grandly to her left at an eleven-by-fourteen framed picture of herself.
    â€œSo . . . your parents paid for the school?” I asked. Maybe it was the only way they’d let this psycho in.
    She rolled her eyes and pointed a long, fake fingernail at a small bronze plaque beneath the portrait.
    IN MEMORY OF KIMBERLEE SCHAFFER
