It was the eve of the Galaxy Math Whiz Competition, an unofficial contest held in the neighboring town. The students from Greenmeadow International School who attended the competition were set to gather at the school on Friday afternoon for the weekend event, with the test on Saturday and their return scheduled for Sunday.

As Loma set cut from home early Friday morning, she was a bundle of nerves and must have checked Cordelia’s luggage a dozen times before she was satisfied nothing was left behind She turned to Cordelia with a worried frown. “Lia, are you sure you can handle this? Maybe i should come with you”

Cordelia shook her head with slow resolve. “Ill be fine, Mom.”

But Lorna’s maternal instincts wouldn’t settle. “Well, at least let me call Hanley to ask him to keep an extra eye

on you.”

Before Cordelia could protest, Laurinda chimed in with a scoff. “It’s just a silly little test. Juliana has been acing exams since she was in diapers and never had any incidents. Some people just love to make a scene.”

Cordelia pulled her hand back with force, about to walk away when she heard Everard’s deep voice, ‘Girl.”

She looked up slowly to meet his warm eyes. He was still smiling. “Remember to miss me.”

She nodded obediently. “I will.”
