Maja nearly spat out the apple in her mouth, swallowing hard and washing it down with a gulp of water.

“It’s just that Ms. Pennyfeather said something that upset me.”

“What did she say?”

“She called me the other woman and said I was trying to steal her place.”

“Aren’t you?”

“Stay away from her, I’m afraid you might catch her craziness.”
