She still wanted to get even with Carmody for her attack, but she's Colby's sister and as far as Nikki knew, their relationship was a lot better than the one she shared with Cassie. So surely she wouldn't react well to the idea of Nikki wrestling her. Especially now that it's only matter of time before Coco takes control in the middle of a match.
"Thanks for caring enough to check on me, Colby. You're a good friend. As for the package, you're right, having the servants check it first is a good idea. That Mexican woman Raquel knows my number somehow, so she'd definitely know this address. It's no secret anyway. It's possible she sent something and put a drawing on it so I'd drop my guard and assume it's from Wanga."
For a second or two, Nikki is lost in thought, wondering what Raquel could have sent in that package to harm her, if that is indeed what has happened. She almost doesn't hear Colby's announcement. "Hold on, what did you say?" Her eyes bounce back and forth between Colby and Amy. "Engaged? Married?" A broad smile crosses her lips. "That's wonderful news!"
Happy for her friends, Nikki hugs them both, and as she does so, Coco's sharp voice begins to echo in her mind
>Why are you happy for them? Amy once told you she loved you, remember? >Then she went and gave your dead friend a ring. Jen's corpse probably hasn't finished decaying yet and she's already marrying Colby. >She used and discarded you. She used and discarded our dead friend, and now she and fivehead get a happy ever after while you mope around and Jen rots? Or perhaps she will discard the fivehead too. >How long must this pattern continue before you realise that she is our worst enemy? Maybe I'll just take over again an-
