The Plaster and the Past

from Noughts + Crosses

Written by Malorie Blackman, Levi David Addai

Noughts + Crosses

After years apart, Callum and Sephy unexpectedly reunite in the Hadley household, where the stark racial and class divide is immediately highlighted by a simple bandage. Their joyful reconnection is abruptly interrupted by Sephy's arrogant boyfriend, Lekan, who asserts his dominance and reminds Callum of his lower social standing.
