Chapter 11

All too soon, Henri had to leave.

The summer sky was cloudless and clear. Henri knew he would miss everyone, especially Lisette. Where was she going to go after his departure?

That afternoon, Moses, Dr. Franklin, and the Marquis returned, and Sarah gathered everyone around the table.

"Last good byes," she said, and gave Henri something. Henri recognized it as a ticket to the ferry to France.

"Erm, sorry Sarah, but we already have a boat ticket to France," said the Marquis.

"I am aware of that," replied Sarah. "This is for someone else."

Henri and Lisette cocked their heads. "Who?" asked Henri.

Sarah hugged Lisette. "You're going back to France, Lisette!"

Lisette jumped for joy. "Really? Merci!" She hugged James, Moses, and Dr. Franklin, waltzed Sarah around the table, and curtsied to the Marquis.

After the party had thinned out, Henri sat on the old armchair that he had when Lisette spoke to him, and Lisette took her spot on the windowsill. This was it, Henri thought.

He joined Lisette by the window.

Lisette did not move. "What is your perfect day, Henri?"

Henri considered this. Would it be a day of food? Of going back to France? Of America being free? Of him being an apprentice in James' dream printing press?

"Does this day have to be imaginary?" he asked.

Lisette shook her head. "No; why?"

Henri leaned closer and kissed her on the cheek. "I pick today," he whispered.
