Millie approached the door thrilled to have the chance to walk with Seri to class. It was even better knowing that she wouldn't have to put up with those annoying boys and could have Seri all to herself.
She knocked on it and waited with a patient smile. The door opened revealing Mary. Her smile immediately left her face. Knowing she was scowling, she quickly put back on her smile. Her smile was gone for such a brief moment, Mary didn't even notice.
"Ah! Millie! Thank goodness you're here!"
She pulled Millie in rudely. Millie wanted to smack her, but refrained because she was a dignified lady... Also, she knew that Seri would he upset with her for being violent.
"What's going on?" Millie asked not even showing a trace of her true feelings.
Mary looked troubled, "Well... I like to be to class early, but Seri hasn't even got up yet. I'm afraid to leave her behind. What if she is late to class? Won't she get in trouble?"
