That day at school, Jordan had let it accidentally slip to Alex that she was getting tested that night for sleep apnea. The mishap had come when she was explaining how she would be mailing her story right after school. Alex had followed up with a plethora of questions about the details of the mail delivery – and then why exactly Jordan would be getting such a test (she had never heard of the condition before – or of that kind of testing). Jordan had made up a generic excuse that she hadn’t been sleeping well as a cause for possible diagnosis; that she had been waking up a lot during the night and her doctor was concerned that her brain wasn’t gonna develop right.
