I felt a little nervous looking at the high wall.

Gathering up my courage, I rang the doorbell.

I felt more and more nervous as I waited and stood by the door. It finally opened after a while.

"Miss Lane?"

"Is Shannon around? I'm looking for her."

It was my fault that Shannon was disappointed. It was only natural that she would be mad at me.

I returned the smile. "It's okay, but please tell her that I'll be waiting for her at the door."

The housekeeper looked troubled but nodded. "Alright, please wait a moment."
