#Chapter50
Setting down the diary, I look at the clock and see that it's almost time for dinner. Needing a break from Julianna's thoughts, I get up from my bed and make my way to the door, wanting to see if I can help Theresa prepare. Just as I reach for the door handle, it opens. I jump and notice James on the other side. /"Oh, hi, I was just going downstairs to help with dinner,/" I say, feeling my heart calm down.
/"Sorry to scare you,/" he says, coming inside, /"but my father insists on helping with the pack until I'm fully healed. He wants to come over tonight so I can brief him on recent issues, so you can't be here./"
I nod, slowly. /"So where will I go?/"
/"Theodore is going to keep you busy until he leaves. The gathering is tonight so I thought he could take you to that. It will only be for an hour or two./"
/"Uh, okay. When should I be ready? When will he be here?/"
James glances at the clock. /"Ten minutes./"
