Isabella must have been having a blast with Julia and the others over the weekend, because she hadn’t heard from Maggie at all. By Monday, Maggie went to work at Cole as usual.

It was almost time to get off work when Jessica called and invited her to dinner. After they finished eating, Maggie went to the bathroom.
