Chuck just smiled and said, “It’s not a bad idea for you to go to France if you ask me. I think you’ll have a good time, and learn a lot, too. It’s my personal opinion that everyone should spend some time away from home to really be able to find who they are and what they’re most passionate about, you know what I mean?”

Scarlett stopped looking at Francis, and for the first time, she felt a little scared and said, “Why do you all have that faith in me? What if I fuck it up somehow?”

“Does that matter?” Chuck raised his eyebrows without care and said, “You can always just come back if you don’t like there. We are still friends, and we will always be here waiting for you. Your home will always be here.”
