"That's a pretty low Marella. Why do you want me and Keefe to be together anyway? Do you like him or something?" 

Marella crinkled her nose a little.

 "There are more pieces in play than what's in front of you." Her comment sounded like a hint, but riddles and gossip were what Marella dealt on a daily basis. 

"Choose wisely." Marella said, getting up and walking out. 

Sophie sat on her floor, mulling over what had just happened. 

"That was short." Sophie's mom said, stopping at the doorway of Sophie's room. "I thought you and Marella would spend more time together doing homework." 

Sophie nodded to herself. Of course Marella had to get in somehow. 

"No, we finished early." Sophie said. 

Sophie had many flaws, but she refused to be a sellout... at least not yet.

                                                                                               ***
