As Mrs. Allen pushed Rebecca back to her ward, she commented, “Miss Olsen has such clear eyes. She seems to be a good person…Honey, are you listening What are you thinking about?”

Mr. Allen came back to his senses, “Ah, I just… Miss Olsen looks familiar…”

“Familiar how?”

Frankie’s voice came from the ward, interrupting them. They didn’t realize that Frankie and a stranger were sitting on the couch in the room.
