    Listen, little Elia: draw your chair up close to the edge of the precipice and I’ll tell you a story.

    Every one of my friends had a bad day somewhere in her history she wished she could forget but couldn’t. A very bad mother day changes you forever.

I stared at my hand, as if they were alien parts of myself . . . as if they had betrayed me. From that day on, I never hit him again.”
