When Sheryl entered the class, she realized she was the first student there. Ms. Witt was already seated at the teacher’s desk waiting for the class to fill up. Sheryl walked up to one of the desks in the second row from the front and sat down. Ms. Witt looked up at her through her glasses and Sheryl forced a smile before saying
“How are you Ms.?”
“Very well thank you” Ms. Witt responded before averting her eyes back to the newspaper she was reading. Sheryl’s smile disappeared as she took out her work books and stationery. It took another five minutes for the class to fill up and when Ms. Witt was satisfied with the attendance she got up and started briefing them on their new topic. She had barely been talking for more than ten minutes when Lance burst into the room.
Ms. Witt turned around from the direction of the board where she had been jotting down notes to face the Lance.
“Sorry I’m late” Lance apologized in his usual smooth cool tone.
“That’s quite alright, next time be early” Ms. Witt told him.
“Yes Ms.” Lance responded and moved to one of the seats in the front row.
Ms. Witt informed them a little more about the topic before saying
“I have paired you up for your projects concerning our new topic”
