My kids have been blessed with a lot of wonderful, talented,
intelligent, gorgeous, amazing
aunts. One of these aunts is determined
to obtain a newer, faster, limo-tinted-windowed luxury car every five
minutes. Her overabundance of charm and taste for all things upscale inspired my
Aunt Fabulous character in my young adult novels, INSPIRALED and INSPIRITED.
Excerpt from INSPIRALED:
Aunt Fabulous
put her arm around me and asked, “Are you ok?”
“I’m
fine. I’m a little stressed out- this
happening to Coco, exams are coming up.
I don’t have my Christmas shopping done yet, and there is a cute boy
that I kind of like. I’m not sure
though, because I’m still getting to know him which is hard because he goes to
a different school.” I rambled all of
that out nervously, and somehow she was able to pay attention even as I was
watching a cute doctor checking her out as he was walking by. Aunt Fab could probably get a date anytime,
anyplace, any hour, in any circumstance.
“Can I help
with anything, miss?” Cute Doctor asked Aunt Fab with a smile, as he slowed
down and turned toward her.
“Oh, no sir,
we’re all taken care of. Thank you,” she
answered as we continued walking.
I didn’t
mention to her any names about the cute boy since my brothers were still in
earshot. Even though they were horsing
around and popping wheelies with the wheelchair, they might still be
listening. She wanted to know more about
Coco and about what I was feeling when I hugged him. What was I supposed to tell her? Sometimes I hallucinate and the things that I
see make no sense at all, and as far as I can tell they don’t mean
anything. Oh, and I have bad dreams,
too.
I played
dumb, and told her, “I felt really, really sad for Coco and was trying really
hard not to cry in front of him. I wanted
to cheer him up, not make him feel worse by crying.”
She stared at
me with big suspicious blue eyes and somehow I knew she didn’t buy it.
