I know it's a disguise.

I know what she really looks like because I've stared at her school photograph for hours.

But I know her anyway.

My body knows her.

My heart knows her.

“Sage.”

Taylor hasn't even stopped completely when my hand goes to the door.

Sean catches my wrist.

“Wait.”

I turn on him.

“Vehicle is moving.”

Oh.

Right.

The SUV stops.

Sean releases me.

I open the door.

Then I can't get out.

My legs won't move.

Sage is staring at the vehicle.

Will says something to her.

She doesn't answer.

Sean gets out from the other side.

He doesn't come around to help me.

He walks toward Sage.

I watch through the open door.

She looks at him.

Then at me.

Sean says something quietly.

Sage removes her glasses.

Then she reaches up and pulls off the brown wig.
