Between Two Worlds: Isabella's Divided Life
Isabella Badia Thornton finds sanctuary at her piano, where her fingers dance across keys that respond to her every touch. When she plays, she truly rocks! But beyond this musical haven, her life has become a complicated composition. Her parents' divorce has split her world in two-one week at Mom's modest house with its Target candles and comforting routines, the next at Dad's luxurious mansion with its formal dinners and pristine Steinway. Every Sunday at 3:00 p.m., she's exchanged "like a wrong-size pair of jeans" in front of the mall's Apple Store, clutching her overnight bag filled with homework and the stuffed penguin that travels between houses. "Birds make nests in trees, right? One nest. One tree," Isabella reflects during a science lesson. "Who ever heard of a robin moving her eggs every week to a new tree? That'd be crazy, right? Yep. Crazy. Welcome to my life." The constant switching feels like whiplash-just as she gets comfortable in one home, she must adjust to different food, clothes, and rules all over again. At Mom's, dinner is at 6:00 sharp with vegetables required; at Dad's, they eat whenever they're hungry, often ordering takeout.
