A Friend in Need
Rama's school is in trouble -- her Indian backers withdrew their support, because students became interested in Christianity. Now Judith Andrews is at the school. Rama is glad to see her, but she knows it isn't purely a social visit. If Judith doesn't like what she sees, Rama could lose American financial support. But this first morning is about friendship. Judith doesn't just want to inspect the school, she wants to understand it, and she wants to befriend Rama as she had in Boston. Rama, more than anything, needs a friend who can grasp more than accounts and student count. She wants a friend who can understand.
Book Excerpt
Rama's Labyrinth: A Biographical Novel (Women of Determination and Courage)
Judith appeared barefoot, wearing a loose summer dress.
“Good morning, Judith. I’m glad you’ve put away the black dress.”
“Well, I thought since the weather is warm, and you always wear white, perhaps I should change my habits a little. What do you think?”
“I think you should be comfortable, and I’ve observed fitted black dresses don’t agree with our climate.” Rama hugged Judith. “It’s been such a long time. I’m so glad you’re here. You can see how I run the school and meet our students face to face. There’s so much I can’t fit into a report.”
