Today, it’s harder to meet with Rhiannon because A’s person, George, is homeschooled, and his mother has tight control over her children and their schedule. She is strict and not a very good teacher, teaching in a slow, robotic manner. A won’t go along with the classroom day like s/he expects George normally would. A keeps asking questions that s/he knows the mother won’t have the answer to, until the mother, exasperated, finally allows A/George to go to the library, to research.

At the library, A is able to meet with Rhiannon. When she comes up to A, A plays a trick on her, pretending not to know her, and when she apologizes for coming up to him, A reveals his identity. This makes her mad, especially since she is used to Justin playing tricks on her, which causes A to apologize profusely for the stunt. When they go to a Chinese restaurant for lunch, A uses chopsticks to outline a heart on the table for her, filled in with pink Sweet and Low packets. The waiter indulges their antics, even bringing them a dozen new fortune cookies when Rhiannon complains about the fortune she received.
