It went pretty well. I explained that my mom had a pathological need for male companionship and protection, which flew like a bird for Mrs. Rawson, who was clearly a charter member of the same club. I said I had protected my mom up until now because of her feelings for Howard—it was already hard to bite back the Coward—and because he was halfway nice to her and because he had threatened me. But yesterday, I explained to Mrs. Rawson, I had finally told Mom the truth, and she had taken it really badly, as I’d expected she would. That’s when I’d realized that it would take more than my unsupported word to convince Mom. So, remembering the rumor that Daisy wasn’t feeling well, I’d followed a hunch and come over.

I used as many psychobabble words as I could remember, which believe me was plenty after a lifetime with my mom and two years with Howard the Coward.

Worked beautifully.

Mrs. Rawson’s expression got darker and darker as I talked. When I’d told her exactly what Howard the Coward did, and Daisy, who was listening in, had broken down in hysterics, that pretty much ended my presentation.

I didn’t feel one hundred percent triumphant and invincible when I was done, watching Daisy subside into hiccups while her mom blotted her face with tissues. I kinda wanted to hurl again.

Mrs. Rawson looked over Daisy’s shiny blonde head at me. “I’d like to discuss this with you further, but not right now.”

I agreed. “This is her second bout since I got here. I’d feed her some chicken soup and put her to bed.”

Mrs. Rawson primped Daisy’s face a little more, kissed her, and stood up. “I’ll feed her a nice hot toddy.”

Okay, that explained how Mrs. R. got through her day. At least she didn’t hide behind denial and shrink talk when she was confronted with a crisis.

“I’m going back to school tomorrow, Mrs. Rawson.” Shivers rippled over my skin. Would I ever not-hate going to school? Whatever. There were only a few days left before commencement. As miserable as Daisy had made me in the past, I didn’t want to see her get slaughtered by gossip. “Do you want me to, well, do some damage control with the rumor mill?”

Daisy came out of her half-swoon to send me a grateful look. “Thanks, Melitta.”

“Just tell them she’s had the flu,” her mom said. “Come by tomorrow after school, if you would? My husband will be home.” The way she said husband made me glad I wouldn’t be there when she explained all this to him. Also, definitely, charter member of the need-a-man club.

I got out of there somehow.
