Moniker Quotes

“Last summer, Wills and her two best friends had spent hours in her bathroom, perfecting feathering their hair, which they collectively decided would be their signature style as seniors. They were going out on a high note, this last year as an inseparable group. When they’d walked into school on the first day, students had actually parted in the hallway as they’d passed. Buck Pringle had whistled and said, “Nice hair, Wills!”
Hearing that, Jani’s jealousy began to simmer so hot Wills could see the haze around her. It didn’t bother Wills. She was used to it. Part of her even admired that Jani wanted more than the life she’d been born into. So Wills had called back, “We’re all the Feathers, and don’t you forget it!”
They were the most popular girls in school, but that’s what they’d been missing, a pack name. So the moniker stuck.”
