Attitude (2013)
“I try to act normal, but it is hard, since Edie is doing her best to avoid talking to me.
“Everything okay, girls?” Mrs. Harrison asks us over dinner.
“Fine,” we both say.

“There’re going to be auditions next week, for The Nutcracker,” Edie says. She drizzles Italian dressing onto her salad. “Our class is going to try out.” She puts the bottle down and presses her hands together ...like she’s praying. “I want to be Clara so bad.”
Mr. and Mrs. Harrison exchange looks across the dinner table. “Ah,” Mrs. Harrison says.
“Probably it’ll be one of the new girls,” Edie says. “Seems like the teachers are mostly paying attention to them.”
“Well, they have to. They don’t know them like they know you lot. Besides, I’m sure the school wants to attract new students,” Mr. Harrison says. “Can you pass the ketchup, Cassandra?”
