"We did it!" Sophie cried, making everyone jump. She could barely believe it!

"We did," Fitz said.

She smiled at him, but then it faded as her heart gave a fresh stab of pain. Keefe squeezed her hand.

''So what's the plan? ''Tam thought.

''Plan? ''Sophie asked.

''The plan to get me out? I figured you'd have one by now''

Er...

We're still working on that, Fitz jumped in.

''Spectacular. I thought Keefe was playing it up for sympathy, but the food really is as bad as he says it was. ''Sophie could practically see him tugging on his bangs.

"What are you doing?" someone burst in.

Sophie's concentration broke as she turned to see Mr. Forkle standing in the doorway with his arms crossed.

She was all set to be defensive and tell him they were contacting Tam, but all that came out of her mouth was, "Umm..."

"We're fixing my mom's mess," Keefe said, coming to her rescue.

"And which mess would that be?" Forkle asked.

Linh sniffed. "My...my brother's."

Suddenly Sophie felt very selfcentered for focusing on matchmaking when Linh's brother was missing.

"I was not aware you would be meeting with out me," Mr. Forkle informed them.

"Well, maybe if you weren't so secretive, we wouldn't hide things from you," Sophie snapped, anger flaring. This whole matchmaking mess was his fault! How could he do this to her!

His eyes were sad when he looked at her. "I understand you are in pain, Miss Foster, but that does not mean you should go making reckless decisions."
