Chapter 32

My hands are on the rail, and I take a deep breath, smelling the fresh scent from the waterfall. I close my eyes, trying to keep it together long enough to tell Jules who I really am. The breeze gently caresses my now unbound hair, the long ringlets drifting in the wind. It's late, and I fear I will not have long to tell Jules about FGI. When the clock strikes midnight, I must leave like Cinderella.

I am sick with dread; my whole body is shaking.

Dolly informed me that I must leave after I tell Jules, Sweethearts must meet at the FGI escort before the main Darling arrives. Dolly will be waiting for me after I tell Jules, to guide me back.

I can't imagine Star having a calm evening either; I wonder wildly how Louis will take this news. I pray that he is more understanding than Jules.

They should be arriving sometime tonight, if not already.
