Chapter 21: Founders Day
Founders Day came up bright and cold, with a blue sky and flags on every lamppost on the Green.
By ten, three thousand people stood on the lawn in front of the stage.
There were students in scarves, faculty in robes, parents with thermoses, and the Board of Trustees in a row of folding chairs at the front.
Tripp Oakes sat in the middle of them beside his father, a gray man in a gray coat with a closed face.
Tripp lifted two fingers to Dash and smiled.
Dash did not smile back.
He stood in the wings of the platform in the navy blazer his father had shipped, with the toast in his jacket pocket.
He did not need it.
Rory stood beside him, enormous in a borrowed suit.
"You look sick," Rory said.
"I'm fine," Dash said.
"You look like you're about to walk into the river."
"That's the plan," Dash said.
"Good." Rory clapped his arm. "Wilder's in the front row. Your dad put him right next to the plaque."
Dash looked over the edge of the stage.
Wilder was in the first row, in a clean black coat, with his hair pushed back and his aids showing.
