Steven had agreed to go to a
party that Lila Fowler was
throwing. Lila went to school
with Steven’s twin sisters, Jessica
nd Elizabeth, at Sweet Valley
High. He had called up Tricia’s
older sister nd asked her nd her
boyfriend, Jason Stone to come
along.
The Fowler’s were one of the
wealthiest families in Sweet
Valley, and any party held at
their estate was an event. To his
amazement, Steven had actually
begun to av a good time. This
was not because of the lavish
surroundings but because of
Jessica’s friend Cara Walker,who
had made sure Steven enjoyed
himself. Jessica had once fixed
up Cara nd Steven, and the
evening had ended disastrously.
Then the afternoon of the
party,Steven had run into
Cara,and discovered she, too,had
been having problems and that
she had changed. That night of
the party Cara had made Steven
relax nd smile.
That changed suddenly when
Cara and Steven started dancing.
Betsy Martin left Jason at the
buffet and went to meet Steven.
Steven and Betsy had been
finding comfort in each other’s
company since Tricia’s death,
but Betsy’s eyes were blazing.
“Having a good time,I see”,she
commented icily
“Yeah, it’s a nice party,”Steven
had answered feeling
uncomfortable.
“I’m surprised at you Steve, I
thought you loved my sister but
the minute another girl starts
looking at you,you forget all
about Tricia.”Betsy lashed
out,her voice shaking with anger
Steven felt as though he had
been punched in his stomach.
He didn’t know how to respond
Betsy accusation. Before Betsy
could say another word,Steven
had rushed off the dance floor
nd raced to his car without
bothering to say goodbye to
Cara.
