"Pay him no regard," Ms. Braddock mutters to you. "Mr. LeBeau often speaks without thinking." To this, Mr. LeBeau makes a mocking "you wound me" gesture.
"Wow, Finland," Luke says. "That's pretty cool. I'm from Ohio," he volunteers, "and Mary Ann is from Mozambique."
"That's in Africa," he adds.
The gumbo is pretty delicious, it seems, although very spicy. Halfway through the meal someone else wanders in, a short but burly man with a profusion of hair, both on his head, where it forms an almost V-shape, and his muscular arms. "Thought I smelled gumbo," he says, dropping into a chair and proceeding to pile the thick rich food into an unused bowl. "You're the new girl, huh? Watch out for these two," he says, nodding at Luke and Mary Ann. "They get in all kinds of trouble."
"No we don-" the two start, again in unison, before they both stop in mid-exclamation and look to the right. "Something's coming."
Just like that, the three adults are on their feet! "You three stay here," Ms. Braddock says. "We'll be back in a moment."
She briskly walks out the doorway, following the other two, leaving you alone with the two students, both of whom look at you with somehow identical expressions on their faces.
