Clara felt a sudden lightness, almost a tingling, as her sister, Emily, revealed her embrace of Islam. She smiled, feeling a rush of adrenaline. She'd be the anchor. The steady force.

She immediately volunteered to help Emily prepare for her new life. She helped her with the purchase of a new wardrobe. She even offered to research Muslim-friendly restaurants in the area.

“Well, darling,” Clara said, squeezing Emily’s hand. “That's fantastic. I'm so excited for you.” Inside, she felt strangely exhilarated. She would protect Emily, in every way she could.
