The Seventh Wish (2016)
“Mom’s rushing around the kitchen packing our snacks.
“Where’s Dad?” I ask. “We have to leave in twenty minutes or we won’t have time to get my dress.”
“Dad’s had a rough night,” Mom says. “He either has food poisoning or a twenty-four-hour bug. He’s a little better now, but he needs to stay home today and get some rest.”
Abby looks up from her cereal. “Do you want me to stay back in case he needs anything?”
“No!” I blurt out, and then realize how selfish and little-kid-like that sounds. “I mean..., it’s just that we’d talked about you coming to see me dance. But that’s okay.” I look at Mom. “Dad should have somebody to get him Gatorade and stuff.”
“Or you can stay with him,” Abby says, “and I’ll take Charlie. I’ve been to Albany plenty of times. That college is where we used to do Model UN.”
Mom frowns, and I know what she’s thinking. She’s already let me down with one feis; she needs to be at this one.
“It’s totally fine if Abby takes me,”MoreLess
