Emily shouldn't be quite as pleased with herself as she is - after all, she's been grounded with no dessert for two weeks - but she can't help but be proud as she presses a Dixie Cup filled with ice to her swollen eye.
She doesn't really feel her shiner in her mighty anger. That boy deserved the split lip and swollen nose she gave him in return. He had no right to call her family weird!
She pouts and kicks the chair. If daddy had been the one to pick her up from school, she would be having ice cream right now. But mommy's mad at her unladylike behavior, and for that transgression she's been locked away like Repunzel in her little upstairs room.
The pout turns into a full scowl as she yanks open her closet door and marches with purpose into Milliways proper. Ignoring the curious looks she attracts, she heads out the back door and to the lake area, where Jay told her yesterday he'd be hanging out.
At least she knows HE'LL understand.
