chapter 4 the date The doorbell rang, and my dad called for me. “Charlotte, Blane is here, honey.” My dad, Lenora, and Daniel were the only people who called me Charlotte. Everyone else called me Charlie. My dad was talking to Blane in the entryway. “Hey, sweetie, you look very pretty,” Dad said. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Lenora spying from the kitchen. “You look great, Charlie!” Blane said, flashing me that dazzling California smile. He seemed eager to get going. Obviously my dad had intimidated him, as he did with most people. I hugged my dad good-night and yelled good-bye to Lenora, who quickly ran into the kitchen, afraid that she had been spotted. We walked to the car. Blane drove a new BMW, and he definitely wanted to make sure that I realized what kind of car it was. I acted very impressed, although I’m not one that really cares at all about what kind of car someone drives. I have very little interest in cars at all, but I faked it because I could tell that it was important to him.
