CHAPTER 3

At the hall

Location: Bearpaw Academy, North Carolina

Event: Prom

The sweet voice of Jordon Sparks soars through the air, setting the right mood for all those in love.

The decorations are impeccable, sashes hung across the hall, white lightings surround the artificial trees giving it a magical touch. Tables covered with snow white cotton table clothes, spotless wine glasses, white ceramic plates with flower prints, shining cutleries and a bottle of champagne on each table. Lilies placed on each table. Roses and lilacs arranged round the stage and round it all up a beautiful flower arc. Chandeliers sparkle with great splendor.

The sweet baritone voice of Louis Armstrong wafts through the air, sending couples to a different world. The magic of the evening is in full bloom. Looking closely every one is in love, or not quite!
