One of the girls came close to me, peering at my selection. “Huh. I feel like you could have done better, 

Piper 

She was mocking me, which I would not dignify. “I’m quite proud of this actually.” 

“My friendly advice?” she said, smirking at me. I was fully prepared to ignore her, until I saw the large 

container in her hand. “Needs more salt.” 

I reached, but I was too slow. She had already upturned the container of salt all over my stuffed mushrooms, totally ruining them. She poured the entire container until it was empty, and then dropped it carelessly on the floor.. 

“Oh, dear. That might have been too much. Sorry!” She giggled as she walked away. 

I stared down at my ruined food. There was no saving it. Even if I removed the massive pile of salt from 

on top of the mushrooms, the taste surely had already been soaked in. 

I would have to discard this batch and try again. However, since I had already used my turn at the ovens, 

I now would have to wait until everyone else had finished. 

Sighing, I regathered my supplies and started anew. I did as much as I could until I needed to cook. Then 

I had to wait. 

And I waited. And waited. 

Some of the girls, I was starting to wonder, seemed like they had chosen appetizers that took extra–long 

to cook, just to mock me. Or maybe the waiting was just getting to me. 

I was in the kitchens until late. By the time the others had finished and left, it was well after dark. Finally, the oven beeped at my set temperature and I placed my second batch of stuffed mushrooms within it. 

At the very least, this batch didn’t look quite as ugly as the last. I refrained from thinking the sabotage 

was a good thing, however. 

With the timer set, I sank onto a stool to wait again. 

“There you are. 

I glanced up. Nicholas walked into the kitchen. 

When I saw him, my face flushed, remembering my earlier daydreams about him as my husband. I cleared my throat and turned away.

suppose it is.” He came closer. “All the other girls finished some time ago.” 

shook my head, “My first batch didn’t turn out right.” 

Oh? 

Too salty. 

I didn’t want to tell him about the sabotage. He might feel the need to do something about it. If he got involved to protect me, it would only end up with more resentment aimed towards me. 

We were supposed to be proving to people that we didn’t still care about each other. 

Nicholas picked up the empty salt container off the floor. “I don’t suppose this has anything to do with it.” 

I looked at it, then at him, but kept my mouth firmly closed. 

He stepped closer. “Piper –” 

“It was just a joke, Nicholas. I can handle it. Honestly.”
