Bab 48: Eleven Months Later...

Deepdene was a very traditional school, and the same things happened every year, because they were part of the fabric of the school community. On the last Monday before Easter, year seven always visited the Victoria and Albert Museum, just as year eight would visit the British Museum on the Wednesday, and year eleven would go to the theatre, just before they started their exams. So, eleven months after seeing Professor Hoyte, I returned to the beginning of my journey, with the twins as my minders and Louise as my nervous conscience. I was a different person to the one who had arrived at the museum a year before with the Redstone gang. Not a better person, necessarily, although I think I probably was a nicer girl, but definitely a totally different one. My relationship with Grace and Chloe was so close that other people had started calling us the triplets for real, whilst my close friendships with Louise and Felicity were both incredibly important to me, and to them, I hope.
