“Don’t listen to her,” Mom cut in. “Rosa’s a very gifted skater. She’ll need an advanced class.”
“Maybe we should start you out in Intermediate,” Ms. Mission suggested. She shifted her body against the counter. She was overweight, but in a pretty way that made her soft-looking. She smiled kindly at me. “If you do well, you can move up.”
“She needs an advanced class,” Mom insisted, her dark eyes flashing.
Ms. Mission laughed. “You’re a lady who knows what she wants, aren’t you?” she asked.
“She sure is,” I agreed.
Mom’s scowl relaxed into a smile, and she even managed to chuckle at herself.
“Okay, Advanced it is,” Ms. Mission said. “That class meets at 3:30.”
Ms. Mission smiled as my mother handed over the check. “Great! We’ll see you here tomorrow afternoon.”
