Glass Girl (A Young Adult Novel) - Plot & Excerpts
TWENTY-SIX The long flight to Pittsburgh gave me a chance to do a lot of mental preparation. I wore my headphones, but never turned on my iPod. The plane was dark. Dad leaned his seat back and pretended to sleep, probably so I wouldn’t ask him questions he couldn’t answer. We’d planned to get a cab to Aunt Catherine’s house, where we’d borrow a car and decide what to do next. The cab stand shared an exit with the passenger pick-up lane, and that’s where we found Uncle David, leaning casually against his car, waiting for us. He waved when he saw us and walked over with his hands in the pockets of his faded jeans. Being a neurosurgeon meant that he could intimidate the heck out of people when he opened his mouth, but he was surprisingly laid-back. “Hey, you wouldn’t happen to be my niece, Meg, would you?” He grinned crookedly. “Because you look a lot like her, except she’s scrawnier. And her knees and elbows are usually bleeding.”
