Dr. Meadows's words haunted me. Her
messages to me were so specific yet, at the same
time, mysterious. My reading had not been
anything like my friends'. It wasn't about my
personality but rather about events. The snow.
The woods. Howling. The moon. A kiss? Not only
did I get a crazy fortune, but I'd blown my
allowance for the entire week on foolishness.
As we dished by the car, Abby and Ivy
cracked up.
"I thought she was great!" Ivy said. "She
was so right on with me."
"Well, it wasn't hard to figure out that you

"I don't want you walking home alone," Ivy
said. "Please come with us."
"We don't have much time to argue," Abby
urged. "She'll be fine. Her house isn't that far
away."
I nodded in agreement.
As my friends departed, I followed a bike trail
that ran between the Westside woods and the
main road. As long as I stayed on the path, I'd be
home within twenty minutes. I began walking,
enjoying the sights of endless trees, the smell of
November air, and the sounds of geese flying
overhead. Birds' nests high atop a few of the
