Jade
“Andrews 5 "It's probably a good time to break for lunch," Dr. Marlowe said. "I'd rather hear Jade's story," Misty whined. "Speak for yourself, girl. My stomach's rumbling and her story will still be here when we get back," Star told her. "Jade could use the rest, I'm sure," Dr. Marlowe said. I wasn't hungry, but it was a good idea to stop for a while. When I rose, I felt as if I had been running, not sitting. Riding a roller coaster of emotions, even only in memory, was exhausting. On a table o...n the closed-in patio, Emma had set up a buffet of cold cuts, cheeses, some salad, bread and rolls. There was a variety of cookies, too. "I changed my mind," Misty said when she set eyes on it all, "I'm glad we stopped for lunch." Star grunted, but Cat actually broke out in a wide smile. I say broke out because for her a smile was something smothered beneath shyness and fear most of the time I had been with her. Whenever she did smile, I felt as if it had escaped from under the weight of sadness that usually soaked her face like ink in a blotter.MoreLess
