—No somos ricos —dije débilmente.
“You’re richer than us,” Annie said. Not angrily. Just stating it. “You had a house. You had him.”
I didn’t argue.
“I yelled at her,” Annie said. “In front of everybody. The whole hall. Trevor and his friends and everybody. I said she was a liar. I said… I said ‘you think because your dad’s dead you can just give me some fake dad?’ And I said she could keep her stupid dress. I took it off right there in the bathroom and threw it at her and walked out in my gym clothes.”
Ella se cubrió la cara.
“Y Trevor empezó a reír. Y él dijo: ‘La buena voluntad ni siquiera quiere que me haga la mano, Lily’. Y todos se reían de ella. En ella. Por mi culpa”.
I thought of Lily coming up the stairs with her swollen eyes.
