--only to be interrupted by a voice yelling from the kitchen, "Show him the newspaper, you dork!"
"Harpy!" Emma yelled back, but she was grinning as she reached to the side to pick up a newspaper. "So, every year, the Times business section does a profile on the top three grads from the ESU program? It's the closest they get to running an out-and-out gossip session for anything not the downfall of some titan."
She flipped a few pages before holding it up for Jack to see. Or, see as best he could on phone-Skype. There was a picture of Candy and Emma standing back-to-back, and looking utterly fabulous and fierce. "The hideous title of the article is 'Hail to the Queens: Girls Rule and Boys Drool,' and the interviewer kept trying to get us to say horrible things about each other, but the article itself actually turned out quite decent. I'm thinking of laminating it and sending a copy to Winston. It doesn't mention him once."
