From my novel - Sage's cousin Amanda is visiting for Thanksgiving...


Amanda slouched downstairs and I was sent after her. “She’ll be fine,” I told Mom. “She’s too old to chew on the cables.”

“She’s our guest,” said Mom. “Go entertain her.”

Amanda slouched in our couch in the basement, glowering at our television. “I can’t believe you don’t have TV?” she said.

“You’re looking at our TV,” I said. “It’s right there, Amanda.” She sat up fast. “Mandi. Sorry.”

She slouched back down. “But you don’t get any channels or anything,” she said. “And all of your movies are like a million years old, OMG, no wonder you’re so weird.”

“Thanks!” I said.

She looked at me with her forehead wrinkled like I might be dangerously insane. This is a look that Mandi shoots at me a lot. “Like, really super weird,” she clarified.
