Malia ended the call and faced her step-mother. She had been in such a good mood that she had completely forgotten that there would be a reckoning when she got home.

It was time to face the music.
“Shannon, I don’t know what got into me this morning. I am so sorry for what I said; I don’t know why I said it and it definitely won’t happen again.” Malia shifted uncomfortably while looking down at her feet.
“Really, you think you can just say sorry and we can forget about how disrespectful you were to me this morning?” Shannon’s voice was dripping with sarcasm. She was so not letting this one go.
