"Wow man, what happened to ya at the ball?" Gerald asked his best friend as they were in his room later that night.

"I...met this woman, Gerald." Arnold said, staring at the red glass slipper that the girl he'd been with dropped. "She was wonderful. I hadn't felt this way in a long time, especially not with another person. I don't even know who she is. All I know is that she's the one who fits this slipper."

"Wow, man...that's crazy." Gerald blinked. "You only just met her, and you're in love with her?"

"...I'm not going." Helga said, holding back the disappointment in her voice.

"Not going?" Brooke repeated, and then cast a secretive smirk to her daughters, who were half dressed as they were getting ready. "What a shame..." She faked, and the two girls hid giggles. "Well, there will always be other times, then..."
