Simone Elkeles Quote

How's that sister of yours? I ask, changing the subject.She's waiting to beat you again at checkers.Is that right? Well, tell her I was goin easy on her. I was tryin' to impress you.By losing?I shrug. It worked, didn't it?I notice her fidgeting with her dress as if she needs to fix it to impress me. Wanting to ease her anxiety, I slide my fingers down her arm before capturing her hand in mine.You tell Shelley I'll be back for a rematch, I say.She turns to me, her blue eyes sparkling. Really?Absolutely.
