"She Chewed Her Lip And Lowered Her Head, Playing Distractedly With Her Doll. "What If I Got Sick And Died, Mama?"
"You Won't Get Sick," Mama Said, Glancing At Her. She Smiled. "You're Far Too Healthy And Young To Die."
Sarah Watched Her Mother Brushing Her Hair. It Was Like Sunshine Flowing Over Her Pale Shoulders. Mama Was So Pretty. How Could Alex Not Love Her? "But If I Did, Mama, Would He Come Back And Stay With You?"
Mama Went Very Still. She Turned And Stared At Sarah, And The Horrified Look In Her Eyes Frightened Her. She Shouldn't Have Said That. Now Mama Might Guess She Heard Them Fighting.....
"Don't You Ever Say That, Sarah."
"But----"
"No! Don't You Ever Ask Such A Question Again. Do You Understand?"
Mama Had Never Raised Her Voice Before; Sarah Felt Her Chin Quiver. "Yes, Mama."
