That night the first show was just beginning. The circus had almost sold out of tickets and people were still coming. The carnival just outside was as busy as ever. Jean watched them from above and no one could see her through the darkness. She gave out a sigh and just sat down.
“They don’t know how lucky they are,” she thought.
She sat there for a few more minutes waiting for the show to start. She was a little jealous that everyone could have fun at the carnival except for her. She even saw one or two of the performers having fun.
“Jean,” said a Voice.
She quickly looked down and saw the Ring Leader. He looked back up at her and he seemed to mean business.
“Show starts in fifteen minutes.”
“Ok,” replied Jean.
“What’s wrong Jean?”
“What do you mean?”
“Well your mainly cheerful before the show begins. But right now you seem miserable. Is there anything wrong?”

Will he tell her?
