“My daughter needs fidelity, not juvenility, Ma Mae said, flippin her head like a backlash. Sissy: Mama, that's not w rod. Poppy: Actually, that is a word. Now I know I have a gene pool of vocabulary. I just thought it had been a fluke. She actually knows words. "Mama why don't you speak like that all the time. That was smart. I just save it for letters and legal papers. No need to waste my brain. It comes out too when I'm mad. Philip just stood there watching the women go back and forth and knew the apples were with the tree.” — Toni Orrill
