It’s aregular Tuesday morning.
My mama is crocheting, my zaza is washing zucchini from the garden, my
sister, Ava, is writing in her journal, and I’m trying to figure out where this QR
code clue leads so my team can win this week’s cryptology puzzle and stay at the
top of the Vault leaderboard.
My fingers fly across my phone keyboard under the table as I stare
absentmindedly into my almond-milk oatmeal with raisins and pepitas.
ME: I’ve looked at everything. Code might be a dead end.
At least I hope that’s what I typed. Autocorrect gods, take pity on me. Phones
aren’t allowed at the table, or in the morning before school, but I have a clue to
find.
Just as I’m about to let go of my phone, I feel four distinct buzzes in my hand.
My phone only buzzes when I get a text in all caps, and the team only texts me in
all caps when they’ve gotalead.
I have to look.“So, Ava-bear,” says Mama, setting her crochet project down and leaning her
elbows on the table. “How’s journaling going?”
Ava sighs and runs a hand through her long dark hair, pulling it all to one side
and twisting it around itself. She’s only older than me by a couple of years, but she
has the cynicism of someone twice her age.
“I mean, it’s going,” she says, her voice a low early-morning croak. “I’m doing
affirmations right now. None have come true, but they’re making me more
optimistic, I think.”
“Good.” Mama smiles, tucking a loose strand of hair behind Ava’s ear. Mama
reaches into the tiny satchel at her hip, and I wonder if I have time to glance at my
phone, but she’s too fast. She pulls a roller ball out of her bag, takes Ava’s wrist in
her hand, and rolls the oil gently over her veins.
