ZELDA I couldn’t reach Phoebe or Avery and I didn’t want to call my mum. It’s so difficult getting across to them these days but I didn’t need to wait. I had some cash with me; the money I’d been paid for the months I stayed in Auradon. I would have to hire a public vehicle to take me to Atlantis. You would think I would be glad going back to Atlantis but I wasn’t. I was a total mess and so was Charlotte. She didn’t talk much, maybe because she knew I was hurting. I haven’t told her I got rejected yet but she can see how broken I am. We made the journey on foot in silence till we got to the back gates. It was easier leaving through the back than leaving through the main gate. Only thing is it was like we were going in the opposite direction. We would have to turn around to face eastw
