"You are really going to let me travel with us on these terms? What if I really die? How will you be able to forgive yourself?"
She heard a click, she opened it. "Marianne!" Isabelle gasped, gripping her red sister. Her eyes were raw and red, her nose red, her face red and splotchy. How long had she been crying?
