CHAPTER 12: CONCLUSION
By Apologiesqueen
It had been a long time since Mallory had really thought about the influence the BSC had on her life. Riding home from Kristy's house with Jessi's dad, thoughts tumbled around in her brain almost faster than she could keep up with them.
When she got to her house, she ran to her room, shouting "I'll tell you later!" to her family, who asked how the barbecue had gone. She grabbed a fresh notebook and settled at her desk to write.
The Baby-sitters Club. I'm proud to say it was totally my idea, even though the four of us worked it out together. "Us" is Mary Anne Spier, Claudia Kishi, Stacey McGill, and me—Kristy Thomas.
I got the idea on the first Tuesday afternoon of seventh grade. . . .
