Dear Matilda,<br />

Your relationship with Evan is sooooooooo fake. It’s horrible to<br />

watch. You have two days before I tell my mom.<br />

Vrolids x<br />

“This is very bad,” Evan groans. “This is very, very bad.”<br />

I’m barely listening. My stomach twists and I feel sick. I push into<br />

my dorm and curl up in my beanbag. My eyes well with tears and<br />

before I know it, I’m sobbing. He crouches beside me and rubs my<br />

back.<br />

I don’t know how long we stayed like that, but a knock on the door<br />

brings us back to reality. Evan gets up and answers it. A man in a<br />

black suit barges in. I stand up with a jolt.<br />

“Your presence is required by Queen Noro of Xiollia,” he declares.<br />

“What?!” I exclaim. “They said we had two days!”<br />

“Your presence is required immediately.” He opens his briefcase.<br />

Inside, it glows blue. “Step in.”<br />
