Violet worried about Yana. If the Others had decided to fake her death, what possible reason could they have for it? Finally, the bell rang for lunch, and Violet hurried to meet up with Carl, so he could tell her what was going on.
Violet prepared herself for bad news as she entered the dining hall. The mood was low; nobody was talking or laughing. The news of Yana might have been a shock. Carl and the pack were already up on their lunch balcony, so Violet made her way toward them.
There was no sign of Rose, and Violet hoped she was okay. She had been closer to Yana than anyone, the two of them and their friend Mark. Violet rarely saw Mark around anymore. They had no classes together, and if they saw each other in passing, Mark ignored Violet. He had never liked her much from the start.
