" Oh, very well, do you want to know why Ireally think you should keep a journal?”
She nodded.
“Because someday you’re going to grow into yourself, and you will be as beautiful as you already are
smart. And then you can look back into your diary and realize just how silly little girls like Fiona Bennet
are. And you’ll laugh when you remember that your mother said your legs started at your shoulders. And
maybe you’ll save a little smile for me when you remember the nice chat we had today. "
