Everyday Use by Brittany Martin

“I’m so nervous” Maggie said uneasily
“Don’t worry” John Tomas said reassuringly
“What if Dee comes and completely hates the house, or what if she doesn’t want to be here?”
“She wouldn’t be coming home if she didn’t want to Maggie.” said John Tomas, trying to be supportive of his fiancé
“You don’t know my sister.” Maggie said
“She might be coming just to say hi to mamma and then leave right after”
“I don’t think so honey” said John Tomas
“After all, she’s your sister and she won’t come home and completely forget about you”
“I’m still not convinced” Maggie said, now a little sad.
“Here she comes honey!” said John Tomas
“Hold your breath.” Maggie said as she and John Tomas walked outside to greet Dee.
