Driving home with Miles, Katie lets out a sigh and then a whoop.

“That was great. Did you hear what she said at the end? Let’s assume it’s a yes.”

“She didn’t exactly say that. She said let’s be positive.”

“Okay. But look, we’re very strong candidates. We come from a nursery school that essentially feeds into Hunsford. We’re a good family and our kid is a star.”

Miles says nothing.

“I know,” Katie says. “Lots of families from our school don’t get in. I’m just hoping that we’re a family that looks right and feels right to them and that Alex wows them when they meet her.”

Miles drives. Still says nothing. The silence is crushing her.

“She was so nice,” Katie says. “Didn’t you think so, Miles? Didn’t you think it went well?”

“I did,” Miles says. “I think it went really well.”

“But?”

“But,” Miles says, “you don’t know.”

“Yeah. It’s true. You don’t. Jesus, this sucks.”

“Are you going to write her a thank-you note?”

Katie cracks a smile. “I already did.”
