351 SS3 08: The Escape to Narnia

When Eve got inside the car, a surge of panic squeezed her chest. The reception was far from over. There were still things to do such as the bouquet toss, the games, the garter—which she didn't mind missing—and more.

But, when the building faded away and they drove out of Maize City, those fears melted away.

Eve eventually figured out that it must be because she had left her phone so no one was calling or messaging her about the party. At least, she didn't receive any of them.

A secret hiding place, perhaps?
