Saying bye to Charlie
At about 12 in the morning, everyone started filing out of the theater. Janet walked with Blink and every few moments he told her how much he loved her, and how happy he was that she was staying. She absolutely loved it, and him. Janet told Blink that she wasn't going to sell tomorrow because she wanted to be with her 'brother' for the day since he was leaving. He told her it was great, and then they both went to their separate rooms. Janet fell asleep that night with a smile on her face, and only dreaming of the good things that were to come.
The next morning Janet didn't wake up till 8 because she told Kloppman to let her sleep in. She got ready and at 9 she went into the boy's bunkroom.
"Hey Charlie, wake up." She started shaking him so he would wake up and after a few minutes of that he finally did.
"I'm up, I'm up" he said while sitting up, and grabbing his clothes next to his bed. At about 9:30 they were walking out of the lodging house. They walked up Duane st. looking for where the antique book store 'would' be in 95 years from now. They found a run down apartment building where it would lie. They walked in, and walked up the creaky old stairs. They walked down a hallway and saw a closet. Charlie opened the door and the both peeked in. They knew it was the right closet, and they knew this was goodbye. They hugged each other and Janet handed Charlie a note as he walked into the closet. In a matter of seconds she heard a thump and looked back in the closet and he was gone. She walked down the stairs and out of the apartment building. She knew this was the start of her new life, and every year she would have something special for Charlie, and she knew that he would get it every year.
