Read the excerpt from Homecoming. "Listen, I’m going to go to a phone and see where the bus station is and call them up to find out how much tickets cost. You lay low.”

"Why?”

Dicey decided to tell him the truth. "Just in case. I mean, three kids in a car in a parking lot at night . . . See, James, I think we’ve got to get to Bridgeport and I just don’t know what would happen if a policeman saw us. Foster homes or something, I dunno. I don’t want to risk it. But one kid . . . and I’m pretty old so it doesn’t look funny.”

Based on the dialogue in this excerpt, which best describes Dicey?

She is smart and resourceful.
She is scared and confused.
She is uncertain and unaware.
She is happy and comfortable
