"Well I was tempted to hex her several times, Leila I mean." And she wouldn't even have felt bad about it only she didn't want to sink that low. "Instead I took it quietly, focusing my energy instead on doing well in school and being an all around better person than her...which was actually pretty satisfying." And hopefully people respected Ashley's choice not to sink to Leila's level.
The four turned to stare at her with slightly confused looks. Dia herself, who had thought she was doing a good job of understanding was suddenly lost again. Ashley found it better to not hex the girl but instead to be a better person refusing to sink to Leila's level? Was it even supposed to make sense? Her mother had always taught her to never allow anyone to take advantage of her and that getting even was a sure way to ensure that you were never bothered again...so long as you did it right. What made even less sense was that she thought doing such a thing was... fulfilling. How very strange...

Lizzie understood perfectly what this Ashley woman was saying. It really was quite fulfilling to know that in the end you were the bigger person and you stuck it out. It had such a rewarding feeling to it. "I know what you mean." Lizzie said with a smile. Finally someone who saw life th way she saw it!

Well I'm not sure I understand." Cameron was still trying to wrap his mind around what she had just said. How was that very fulfilling...?"You chose focusing on school work over hexing someone?" He never thought he would have met someone quite like her in fact he was sure she was rare.
