"This is fantastic, Sophie. Have you considered entering it in the art show?"

"No thanks, Miss Finnigan."

"But it's wonderful. You can almost feel the pain and shame in the lines. That's rare in pencil sketches."

"Thanks. But I'm not interested in showing my work…"

"Is this about your friends? They wouldn't have to know. You can enter anonymously, as long as the work is approved."

"Really?"

"Yes. Think about it."

"I will. I promise."

"And you can enter as many pieces as you want. Isn't this part of a series?"

"Yeah."

"Good. Make sure you show me the rest."
