"I was just wondering..." Yes?" Anything! Laura was thinking. Anything for you!"You know, I got a call from my little boy." She looked down at her han...s, twisting her fingers. "He's having such a good time... he wants to stay another week." Oh good. I'm glad he's having fun." So I was thinking... maybe I could, you know, like come over to dinner... or something."Jonelle wouldn't look at Laura. She looked away, painfully embarrassed. Only now did Laura realize how hard it had been for her to say. Hamare ghar mein do kamre and ek kitchen hai. Mere mom and dad ek room mein sote hai. Mein (22 yrs), mera bhai rahul (20 years) and Didi shveta (24 yrs ) ek kamre mein sote hai. Is se pehle hum joint family mein rehte the so sab ladkiyan ek kamre mein and sab ladke doosre mein sote the. Hamare kamre mein do bistar lage the ek per mein and didi sote the and doosre per rahul sota tha. Ek raat jab mein bathroom jaane ko uthi to mere bhai ka haath mueri thigs se takraya. Mujhe laga ki uska haath. I was going to get extensions, I wanted my hair to go half waydown my back and I told her to dye it darker. I was going all the way. Ican't imagine Lola getting mad at me for this, it was for her and herboss after all. While a woman worked on my hair another started on mynails. I wanted glass extensions, I really wanted to put a dent inGrayson's card. I couldn't wait to see what I would be wearing. I hadMarigold pick out my outfit, and she didn't want to show me until she wasdone.It was time. Demeaning me, laughing at me. Sure, it would have been so muchbetter if he'd mocked my costume or had me do some cheers like the ditzycheerleader I claimed to be, but that was fine. As long as he didn't messthis up..."Let's see. A girl who's never been kissed, wearing the Treat-or-Tricknecklace. With tons of, hm, cotton candy lip gloss. Perfect. Tell me youwant to kiss me."This was real. My voice shook a bit. "I want to kiss you." You sound like a wannabe movie star. Ever sentence from now on,.
