“Elizabeth! Can you get your sister out of here, please? I am trying to cook dinner before your father gets home. You know he works late in the factory for extra overtime,” her mom yelled from the other room.

Liz sighed and put her book down on the nightstand, about to comply. Her younger sister bounced into the room and flopped on the bed. She looked at Liz and then at her book. “Whatcha reading?”

She picked it up and showed it to her. “1984. Momma said it was written by our great, great, great, great uncle. I thought, since I like writing so much, I would read it. When he wrote it, it was supposed to be a warning, but it now reads almost like a history book. It’s crazy.”

Her sister smiled, her hair wild. “You are so smart. I bet you get into the prep school.”

Liz’s smile faded slightly. “I really hope so. But you know how things can be. We live in a different world now.”

Her computer dinged and the new email symbol popped up. Butterflies erupted in her stomach as she pushed to her feet and glanced out the window at New York City in the distance. As she sat at the computer, her mother walked in and came up behind her. She had heard the email notification.

Liz checked and confirmed that it was from the agency. She took a deep breath and opened it, and her heart immediately dropped. A small tear trickled down her cheek and she turned the screen off. Her mother put her hands on Liz’s shoulders and leaned down. “It doesn’t mean anything. You are smart and beautiful, and you will make it in this world. And you are always welcome to come to the salon and be a stylist.”

Despite her disappointment, she gave her mother a courteous smile and glanced at her sister. She could only hope things would be better for her when she finally reached testing age.
