Chapter 13 Summary: “Moods and Maybes”
The following week, April gets some bad news:
April was in a bad mood. She had been in a bad mood since the day before, when she’d gotten a letter from Hollywood. The letter was from Dorothea, and it was very cheery and chatty (117).
April’s mother had written to say that she’s married her agent, Nick. There isn’t enough room for April to come live with them yet, and Dorothea has had all her daughter’s things shipped to Casa Rosada. April is fuming over the letter when Caroline enters her room. Her grandmother says that she also got a letter from Dorothea. At this point, April breaks down in tears, and Caroline does what she can to comfort her.
Even though the girls don’t expect Toby and Ken to show any further interest in the game, Toby approaches them at school to plan a meeting in Egypt on Friday. When the group assembles in the storage lot, the girls explain the game to the boys. Toby immediately embraces the idea and asks for the titles of some books about Egypt. Ken is warier, but doesn’t mock the game either.
