“So they all get wasted.” Rachel giggled. “And the best part is there are no parents.”

I couldn’t help overhearing her on the phone. She was in her room; I was in the hall, pretending to iron. To be honest, I was eavesdropping. She’s only twelve.

“Somebody’s older brother or sister gets the booze. You know, like raspberry flavored vodka. Everyone likes it.” Silence. “I guess. A lot of guys are dealing now.” My pulse started to race. She was talking about weed. “Why not? No one‘ll find out.” Another silence. “Ooohhhkaaaay.” She stretched the word into three syllables. “Catch you later.”

I tried to put the ironing board away quietly, but the metal legs squeaked as the folded up. Rachel flung open her door. “You’re spying on me!”

“I am not.”

“Yes, you were.” Her eyes narrowed into slits of fury. “What did you hear?

“Enough to keep you grounded for the next three years.”

“I hate you!” She screamed. “You’re invading my privacy. I want to move in with Dad.”
