The Principal's Office

[tailor_made]

The door to the principal’s office is open at all hours, although you will only find Hester at the receptionist’s desk from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. This is primarily where you can have private conversations with her. Though there’s an actual office in the back, it is always closed and locked.

I swear. [She holds out both hands palm up on her desk. It's a silent invitation but not a demand.] I wouldn't lie to you, Maya.

But don't apologize. You haven't done anything wrong.

[Her hands slip into Hester's. She breathes out some of the tension in her chest.]

I didn't need to come in yelling, I don't think. [She tries to breathe in. Her breath hitches but... It's fine.]

Thank you.
