"Jon?" The former male found herself saying. "Jon who? You know I don't let boys in my bedroom...unlike SOME people," she said, looking pointedly at Sarah...who hadn't wished that Jon couldn't tell anyone but Karyn who she really was. That would include Sarah.
Sarah looked surprised for a moment. The fake sweetness went out of her voice. And she turned serious. "Daddy is taking Mother on a romantic trip all of the sudden..." because she'd wished it up. "So it is just going to be the two of us for a week."
Jon...or rather Roxanne felt a wellspring of anger inside herself for what Sarah had done. And...since she couldn't, much as she tried, express it to Sarah, it was coming out in other ways. "I don't care what you do...just stay out of my way, Sarah," she said. "I have to get ready for school. Do you mind?" She said, gesturing at the door.
