INSPIRING WORDS
“Without reflection, we go blindly on our way, creating more unintended consequences, and failing to achieve anything useful.”
- Margaret J. Wheatley
CHAPTER 1

My mom’s face went whiter than I’d ever seen it before. I wasn’t sure whether she going to pass out or explode. Her chest was rising and falling with the slow, subtle pattern of controlled anger.
“I want her to leave.” She was looking at me, but she was talking about Louisa. “I want her gone from your brother’s wedding and I don’t want to hear about this again.”
“Maybe that’s for the best,” Louisa agreed. I could see her taking a step forward towards the doors which would take into the rest of the building. I pushed my arm out quickly, so that it held her back.
“Louisa isn’t going anywhere. I want her to be here,” I said calmly to my mom. The calmness in my voice was surprising. I wasn’t sure how I was keeping it all together. The worst had happened. My mom had no only found out about my secret, but she’d found out in such a graphic way. This was only going to get worse, before it got better. I could feel the storm clouds brewing around us, even the sky above was nothing, but unbroken blue.
“Get her out of this wedding.” My mom’s teeth were clenched, but I could understand her perfectly well. “I will not have our family embarrassed like this.”
“If Louisa leaves then so do I.” I held my mom’s eyes with my own. I didn’t want her to think that I was bluffing. I didn’t want her to think that this was somehow Louisa’s fault. She had to know it was coming from me.
She did know. She could see it in my eyes. She could see my fierce unwillingness to back down.
“You have a date in there,” she hissed at me. “What am I supposed to tell him? What am I supposed to tell his mom when she asks?”
I shrugged. “You tell his mom that her son tried to attack me. You tell her that he led me down a dark street and he tried to do, well I don’t know what he would have done,” I cried out in frustration. “I managed to stop him before he had the chance.”
“Sophie, this is serious enough without adding lies to the equation.”
Could she look more furious? She looked like I’d just spat in her face. The white of her cheeks had been exchanged for a blotchy, burned red.
“Is that true?” Louisa asked me. I felt her hand reach out and wrap around my shoulder. My mom’s eyes were glued to the small gesture. She looked as though Louisa had taken her hand and slapped her across the face with it.
I nodded. “It’s not a big deal. I sorted it.”
“It’s not a big deal?” Louisa sounded outraged. She looked it, too. I let my eyes glance over to her face and I found the storm that the clouds had been gathering for.
She pointed at my mom.
