Then there's a rustle as Mistress strides in and everyone stands up and stops talking. She goes to her chair, which is in the center of the teacher table, and looks out across the room. When all is silent, she speaks. "We welcome into our company our new student, Miss Jacky Faber," says Mistress, and I redden at the notice. " I feel like I've been hit in the belly with a cannonball.

I'm lookin' real hungrily at the bread roll sittin' there next to the butter but I notices that nobody else is diggin' in yet, so I waits. "My name is Amy and there is to be a soup course," she says. She brings up a book and puts it on the table. So that's why she had her head down. She was reading. "Ah," says I, deciding to watch her and just do what she does and that way avoid trouble. I notice some older people have come into the mess hall and have seated themselves at the table by the door.

" "It warn't so bad," I says, flashin' her my best grin and showin' that I have a naturally cheerful nature. " This raises her eyebrows and breaks her stride a bit.
