Ella raced to the ball and grabbed Priscilla's bicycle. Suddenly, a girl tumbled out of a window, landing on Ella! "I'm sorry," the girl cried, trying to push into the palace. Ella's glasses fell off and broke.
"Oh no!" Ella said. She pushed the bike home, but because she couldn't see, she became hopelessly lost. Ella fell to the ground and began to cry. Suddenly, Gwendolyn walked towards her. As she stopped right in front of Ella, Ella saw who it was.
"You again," she said angrily. "None of this ever would have happened if you hadn't told me to go to the ball."
"The prince was charming?" Gwendolyn asked.
"Yes," Ella grumbled. "But he probably broke an arm when Socrates showed his face."
"Well, what do you want?" Gwendolyn asked.
"I need new glasses," Ella said. "I have to get this bile home. You see, I borrowed it from Priscilla."
Gwendolyn touched Ella's face, and glasses magically appeared! Ella smiled. Without thanking Gwendolyn, she began to make her way home. When Ella arrived, Aristotle nuzzled her face. Ella absent-mindedly petted him and put the bike in the garage. Then she went to her room to read.
