[Locked to Alan]
Anya finishes putting her makeup on and grabs a soda from the fridge at 6:47. Twenty more minutes.
She leans against the counter and pulls out the letter again.
"Dear Ms. Jenkins,
It is our pleasure to inform you that you have been accepted for the Spring term of 2005..."
She gives a happy little smile. A little dance. She knows she wants to major in Economics. It's the best she can think of to go on toward an MBA.
But she'll ask Alan. Alan knows those kinds of things.
6:53.
She finishes the soda and heads back upstairs, doing a quick email check while brushing her teeth.
No new messages. She'd posted that she'd gotten in. Maybe Aidan just hadn't gotten the message yet. Things seemed...off in the Realm again. Daniel has disappeared. Just that one email saying he was going to be gone. She's worried. She can feel he's upset. That he still wouldn't come to her...She doesn't know what to do.
With a slight shrug, she pushes it out of her mind for tonight. Tonight is celebration. Moving forward.
She's college-bound. She did it. Her first goal has been accomplished. It's a heady feeling.
She pulls her heels on and bounces back downstairs.
7:03.
