Madeleine George Quotes

It's Not An Honest Face. It's Not A Kind Face. It's A Face Made Of Anger And Secrets And Lies. From The Tight, Guarded Mouth To The Clenched, Square Jaw To The Glossy Shimmer Of I-dare-you That Coats The Surface Of Her Eyes, Aimee's Face Is A Scary Place For Meghan's Gaze To Rest. But Beneath The Gloss, Behind The Sharpness And Tension, Deep At Aimee's Core, Meghan Can See Something Warm And Real. It's The Same Unnameable Thing She Saw In The Sickroom On The First Day Of School. It's The Same Thing She Feels Pulsing Softly Deep In Her Own Chest.
