Thanks be to Ms. EBT and Wench Tkegl.


Everything she said astounds me, and I'm once again speechless.

Until the need to repeat myself is too much.

"Bella, I'm so sorry about—"

"I know, Angela. I know."

She gives me a small smile before she gets up.

"We should probably get downstairs," she says, grabbing the framed photo.

Just as we're gathering our things, there's a knock on the door.

"Hey," Jasper says as he peeks into the room. "Sorry to interrupt."

He steps in.

"Angela, Ben's been here. You better save him. Alice is interrogating him about how he proposed."

"She's back?" I smile, laughing a little.

He laughs, too, until his smile falls a bit.

"And Kate's here," he says.

"Kate?" I ask.

"Edward's girlfriend," Bella responds.
