Elizabeth the Sixth could feel the change in Sugar as if it were a warm front sweeping in from the south. Finally, she told the kingdom when their keeper got back from her liaison with Theo in Sara D. Roosevelt Park. Finally.

She started laying again immediately, moving from cell to cell at a sprightly pace. She wouldn’t make a top count of three thousand eggs but at least she was back on the job.

Then Ruby came to visit and Elizabeth the Sixth picked up the pace even more. She’d developed quite a soft spot for Ruby. Her aura was fragile, sickly, sad, yet she radiated a quiet strength from an open heart that never failed to make an impression on the queen.

Today, Ruby told Sugar about Patience Vincent and Ryan Ross, who had been married the previous weekend at the Four Seasons Hotel in Boston. Patience had been in love with Ryan in high school but never told him so didn’t know that he’d also had a crush on her until twenty-five years later when they hooked up on Facebook.

Elizabeth the Sixth didn’t know what Facebook was, but she sensed hope and excitement emanating in great crashing waves from Ruby. And when Sugar told Ruby about kissing Theo in Chinatown, the unbridled passion surging out of her practically blew the queen from one cell into the next.

Unbridled passion was exactly what had been missing.

Elizabeth the Sixth thought perhaps she might make three thousand eggs that day after all.
