looking for alibrandi
I am beginning to feel nervous, wondering how Nonna and mama will react when I tell them. Suddenly, it doesn’t seem such a good idea to spring Marcus Sandford on them like this, but it is too late to change it now. He will be here in half an hour. As Sister Louise once told me, I have to be responsible and face up to the consequences of my actions. At least I am being a leader, not a follower- a sheep, sister once called me- who tries to be popular by doing things she knows are wrong. This time I think what I am doing is right. Actually I’m defiantly sure what I’m doing is right. But it’s just going to be the initial shock, not just for mama and Nonna but also for me. I’m trying to find the right words to tell them both, that Mama will finally meet her real father and that Nonna and Marcus will be reunited. Mama said that there are some things in life that you can hope for and hope for. I’m pretty sure that means she is hoping to meet Marcus Sandford. I feel like butterflies are going to burst out of my stomach at any given second, so I figure I might as well get my story out before Marcus shows up.
