Flipped

Bryce: Diving Under
All I’ve ever wanted is for Juli Baker to leave me alone.
For her to back off – you know, just give me some space.
It all started the summer before second grade when our moving van pulled into her neighborhood.

She didn’t just barge into my life. She barged and shoved and wedged her way into my life.
Did we invite her to get into our moving van and start climbing all over boxes?
No! But that’s exactly what she did, taking over and showing off like only Juli Baker can.
My dad tried to stop her. “Hey!” he says as she’s catapulting herself on board.
