I’m not ashamed of where I come from, my family, or how everyone at Marymount thinks my skirts are too short and my lipstick is too red.Ĭlay Collins and her friends have always turned up their noses at me. I cross the tracks every day for one reason-to graduate from this school and get into the Ivy League. ? ℎ? ℎ?.įor me, life is a web of secrets. Unfortunately, what I want I have to hide. The truth is that it’s easy for me to resist them, because what I truly want, they can never be. I own the hallways, walking tall on Monday and dropping to my knees like the good Catholic girl I am on Sunday. I’m behaved.īeautiful, smart, talented, popular, my skirt’s always pressed, and I never have a hair out of place. Not that I have anything to share anyway. We’re chaste, we’re untouched, and even if we weren’t, no one would know, because we keep our mouths shut.
