The truth was, Edie had no idea if her ambivalence was because of what happened with her mum. She couldn’t live an alternative past where her mum did take her meds to find out, could she?

Edie wiped her mouth with a napkin, consciously parked the dark thoughts and drifted round fashionable clothes shops with pounding music, telling herself she had every right to be there, among the truanting teenagers. She found herself a simple strappy black maxi dress, something she didn’t need to try on to know it’d fit. She had been avoiding mirrors. The remarks on Charlotte’s profile came back into her mind, whenever she saw her reflection.
