At the next rehearsal, Susie still hadn’t left her room. When I had visited her, hadn’t even left the bed. She remained inconsolable, always crying and lost in thought. I had held her tightly, told her she was my dear friend and I would be her for there no matter what, and then left the room.

Now, I walked straight up to Bridget. I didn’t care that she was flanked by Olivia and Lilliana and in deep conversation. I walked to her and I interrupted their conversation, and I said, “Susie and I are switching parts.”

Bridget frowned at me for a moment. “I’m not thrilled about this, I want you to know that. Susie’s part was perfect for her, just as your part was perfect for you.”

Yes, the maid who had to watch the biggest kiss in the show from a distance. That was my destiny.

“We’ll live,” I said, only barely hiding my annoyance.

Bridget shrugged in reluctant acceptance. “If Susie’s stage fright is as severe as it appears to be, then we truly have no choice. Fine. You can have Susie’s part, though…” Her eyes brightened like she thought of something. “Your eagerness makes me wonder if you have properly researched Susie’s part?”

Admittedly, I had not. I had been too busy being annoyed at my own nameless part, and worried about Susie’s anxiety that I hadn’t done so much as glance through the rest of the script.

“I can see on your face that you haven’t,” Bridget said. “Maybe you should read it before you decide.”

“Whatever it is, it will be fine,” I said with complete confidence. “I’ll do it.”

Bridget smiled kindly. Olivia and Lilliana, meanwhile, smiled much-less-kindly. “Susie’s part is that of Nicholas’s spurned lover,” Bridget said. Softly, she added, “Perhaps that is the best part for you, after all.”

I blinked, startled by her words. “What?”

“Nicholas’s spurned lover,” she said.

“No. What did you say after that?”

She tilted her head with total innocence. “I didn’t say anything after that.”

I knew I had heard something, but her innocent expression was so convincing that I began to doubt myself. Had I imagined her saying it? Was my jealous wolf
