I am glad Sophie decided to come clean and explain how she too had been involved with the same sort of peer-fuelled-talking too...

I believe it will make the girls closer and more reliant on the solace they each offer the other...Unless the author decides to bring back the black clouds for Sophie and Clara ((ya never know with these writers, right 😁 ))

I equally enjoyed how easily Clara admitted she had done exactly the same too so as not to seem different to the crowd ((risking alienation)) This rings so true with the drama's experienced at this age...Your dialogue felt incredibly natural and flowed beautifully and the characters were given life by way of those little foibles and insecurities that they each share.

This could oh-so-easily have been an overheard conversation at a bus stop, school bench or fast food joint...

Keep challenging yourself you have accomplished so much, reaching out for more is how we grow. 😃
