Chapter 24: Two Kinds of Conversations

Wendy started the bathtub and ran to the cabinet for soaps.

“It was a mistake! I wasn’t meeting anyone!” I cried and pulled the zipper, but it only cut my fingers instead. I hissed in pain and stuck my fingers into my mouth.

Wendy hauled a basket of soaps out and dropped them beside the tub.
