Excerpt
Keeping a smile on my face, I try to look pleasant and relaxed while walking up the drive. Approaching the home of my best friend's parents, I manage a quick scrutiny of my appearance in the glass next to the door. Though impossible, perfection would be ideal. Only halfway satisfied, I take a deep breath and slowly reach a nervous hand up to ring the bell. Three chimes sound, and then for what seems to be an eternity, nothing but silence.
