Wednesday, June 20, 2068, 7:45 p.m., Tracy Island

Tin-Tin smiled happily at the family and friends sitting around the dining room table. It was her birthday, and not only hers, but Emily Tracy's as well, and as a result, the party was a big one. She picked up the gift Brains had given her: a gold cuff bracelet with the words "Nothing is worth more than this day" engraved on it in a simple script, and put it on her wrist. She put her hand on his, and whispered, "Thank you so much," in his ear.

"So, Tin-Tin," Scott called from across the table where he was currently devouring a piece of his grandmother's marble birthday cake (Tin-Tin had opted for turtle cheesecake, one of her father's specialties). "Where are you going for your birthday?"

"Milan," she answered eagerly. "Penelope will meet me there and we'll be going to François Lemaire's latest show. Then on to Paris, where Elaine Wickfen will be unveiling her autumn line of clothes. Just perfect for here at this time of year. I'll leave in the morning."

"Oh, I wish I were going with you," Kat exclaimed. "How I should love to see Lady Penelope again, not to mention all of those lovely frocks."

Alex, who sat next to Kat, rolled his eyes. "Girls' stuff," he muttered, shaking his head.

Emily heard him, and shook a finger at him. "One of these days, you young whippersnapper, you'll have a girlfriend of your own and she'll be interested in such things, so you'd better learn how how to keep your opinions to yourself!"

"A girlfriend? Me?" Alex shook his head sharply. "Uh uh. Not me. Not for a looonnnng time."

Those who heard the conversation laughed, then Dianne piped up. "Tin-Tin?"

"Yes, Dianne?"

"Please bring back a brochure from each show. I'd like to order some new things."

"Of course. I'll be sure to."

Brandon turned to Emily, smiling. "Mrs. Tracy, are you planning on a trip somewhere for your birthday?"

"Well, I was thinking about seeing a few of my old friends back in the States," she admitted. "It's summer there and the heat would feel good. But I'll wait until Tin-Tin comes back so that this place will be at full strength before I go anywhere. After all, someone would have to fly me to the mainland." She glanced across at Lisa. "Will you stay on while I'm gone visiting?"

"Sure," Lisa replied amiably. "When you're ready to come back, then I can head for the mainland and visit that brother of mine in California. We've got some catching up to do."

"That sounds like a good plan," said Emily. She took another bite of birthday cake and sighed. "I've come to the point where birthdays are just reminders of how old I'm getting."

"You're not getting older, Mom," Jeff said from his place at the table's head. "You're just getting better."

"Tell that to my arthritis!" she countered good-naturedly.

The people around the table laughed, and they went on to continue the celebration.

98% pure evil...and loving every minute of it.
