“Is your mom here?” said Isabel. “No, she had work stuff, so it's actually not a big deal for me,” I said truthfully.
“We have two more shows anyway, though I don't think I'll be as good an Emily as Via was tonight.”
Nate came over and we had basically the same exact conversation.
Then Isabel said: “Look, we're going to have a late-night dinner to celebrate the show.
Are you feeling up to joining us? We'd love to have you!” “Oh, no...” I started to say.
“Pleeease?” said Auggie. “I should go home,” I said. “We insist,” said Nate.
By now Via and Justin had come over with Justin's mom, and Via put her arm around me.
“You're definitely coming,” she said, smiling her old smile at me.
They started leading me out of the crowd, and I have to admit, for the first time in a very, very long time, I felt absolutely happy.
