Chapter 20I almost fell out of bed the morning after the masked ball. I couldn’t help myself because orange-yellow beams of light poked through Stefan’s bedroom curtains, while birds chirped outside. I also saw the room’s entire color, which included the mahogany dresser, tan wall, a blue comforter, and sheets. “Color is back!” I screamed “Not so loud!” Stefan rubbed his eyes. Then, he looked around the room and then back at me. “But, yeah, you’re right.” “Did you break the curse?” I asked. He shook his head. “No. I did nothing.” “Yet somehow it broke.” Red spread across his cheeks. “The explanation still makes sense even though it’ll sound corny.” “I don’t understand,” I said, fidgeting with the sheets as I sat up against the headboard while pulling the comforter up to my chest. “
