"Madam," Miss Zuri came up behind me and said softly, "A lady came to visit you."
I frowned and turned around. "Cindy?"

When Quinn came in, I felt somewhat surprised as this was the first time she had ever come here.

Quinn frowned a little. "Wanda, I'm here to look for you. Are you still angry at me for what happened the last time?"
I looked down and smiled. "You're overthinking, Quinn. I’m not that petty. Besides, I understand where you were coming from when I put myself in your shoes."
