Simon had left to a Hotel, near the college where Lucy Camden was waiting.
"So...?" Lucy asked as he stepped in the door.
"Well, I didn't find her, but I did meet a couple of Yale girls who said she graduated."
"That's impossible." Lucy replied, "We both know you two were in the same grade for 13 years and left for college in the same year."
"I'll just..uh...try again tomorrow." Simon threw his coat on the couch.
"You better, Simon." Lucy said, "I paid for your plane ticket to come all the way down to Yale just for this stupid relationship problem!
You have until Friday. That night, we are flying home. For good. I have a husband and baby waiting for me."
Simon rolled his eyes.
All of a sudden, Lucy got a very unexpected call.
"Who is it?" Simon asked.
"Not sure...the ID's blocked." Lucy stared at her cell phone for a moment then answered it. "Hello?"
"Hi, Lucy." The other line replied.
"Oh my gosh, Mary?" Lucy gasped.
"Yeah."
"Wow, this is so...weird. I haven't talked to you in a long time."
"Anyway...can you get me in?"
"In where?"
"The house. I need to pick up a few things."
"Mary! I'm at Yale, helping Simon find his high school sweethart. Can't Mom or Dad let you in?"
"No, they're gone, and I found your car in the driveway."
"Wait a minute, I thought Mom and Dad sent all your stuff to Grandpa's house." Lucy said, confused, "In fact, I helped them ship it. What are you up to, Mary?"
"Nothing, Lucy."
"You can't tell me you're still looking for Martin."
"What? No," Mary hesitated, "I was actually looking to talk to you."
"Okay, talk."
"Is Simon there?"
"Yes."
"Well, it's kind of private. I can't even let him hear your 50 of the convo."
"Okay, well we can talk tomorrow, while he's looking for this Jenna chic."
"Jenna Deveri?" Mary asked, "I thought she was long gone."
"Well, Simon heard she was at Yale and wanted to see how she was doing. I think."
"Well, I have to go."
(In the background): "Hurry up, Mary!"
"Who was that?"
"Nobody, Lucy."
"Whatever."
"Really, just Grandpa."
"Are you sure? The kernel is strict, but not that mean."
"I'm fine, Lucy,"
