Momma had opened the door and walked stolidly in. She and Carrie had
stared at each other down the short length of the front hall for a moment,
like gunfighters before a shootout.
(fear could it really have been fear in momma's eyes)
Momma closed the door behind her. “You're a woman,” she said softly.
Carrie felt her face twisting and crumpling and could not help it.

“I don't want to fight with you, Momma,” Carrie said, and her voice
almost broke from her and dissolved. She struggled to control it. “I only
want to be let to live my own life. I . . . I don't like yours.” She stopped,
horrified in spite of herself. The ultimate blasphemy had been spoken, and it
was a thousand times worse than the Eff Word.

She was intimidated but not stopped. Because, if she wanted to, she could
send them all screaming into the streets. Mannequins toppling over, light
fixtures falling, bolts of cloth shooting through the air in unwinding
streamers. Like Samson in the temple, she could rain destruction on their
heads if she so desired.

“I don't like to be tricked,” she said softly, and lowered her head. She
hesitated for just a second and then passed him by. She stopped and turned

that she was
far from repulsive. Her face was round rather than oval, and the eyes were
so dark that they seemed to cast shadows beneath them, like bruises. Her

for Momma to call upstairs angrily. She didn't. So Carrie got up, went to her
bed, and slid between the cool sheets. Her head ached and she felt giddy, as
she always did after these exercise sessions. Her heart was pounding in a
fierce, scary way.

She was a get-along girl, and it was the first fight she had been in,
physical or verbal, since grade-school pigtail pulling. And it was the first
time in her life that she had actively espoused a Principle.
