Capítulo 18: Absolute Power

If Violet had thought Mary was a walking Encyclopedia, then Lila was the world wide web. She never stopped talking. And Violet made a secret note never to let her secret out to her because God knows who she might leak the information to. 

Although Violet noticed that every word she let out was essential information required for her stay here and there was no backbiting — at least to someone that doesn't deserve it. But even at that, Violet was keeping her secrets to herself. 

Just like her, every student in the West house was heading to the dining hall. And it seemed old habits don't die young because just like her first day at school, the student's creepy stares followed her as usual making her skin prinkle with the awareness. 

However, Violet was pretty much used to it and ignored them, listening avidly to the stories Lila had to offer, keeping the important ones and filtering out the rest.
