For the first time in her life, she felt a bit out of place amongst the girls she'd grown up with. Except for Maddy... all these girls (including Sissy and Alycone) were going out there tonight and it was truly the first night of the rest of their lives. They would go out there looking for invitations and husbands. While on the other hand, Calla still felt a bit like a little girl playing dress-up. She wasn't going out tonight to become a debutante. Frankly she really hadn't decided what she was going to do. She was just... here because she wanted to support her friends and it was what you did at the end of your seventh year. But her dress was pretty and she was here with her friends so she forced a smile on her face and nodded.

"I think this next year is what we make of it - maybe luck plays a part in it or maybe it doesn't. But I think you all will look wonderful tonight and I hope you all have a lot of fun. There will always be other balls. There isn't going to be another night of all of us together like this. We go home after this for the last time. So, I guess I just hope everyone enjoys it. Don't worry too much, okay?"
