Mória heads to class and sits down at the back, trying to make herself invisible.
"Hi," says the girl beside her, "my name is Ashley. What's yours?"
Hoping the conversation will be over soon, she replies, "Mória."
"Mória, what a lovely name. Are you new?"
"No."
"Oh, well it was nice to meet you."
"You too."
The teacher came rushing in. "Sorry I'm late, everyone, I'm having a terrible morning. I trust you all had a great summer?"
"Yes!" exclaimed the whole class.
"No," said Mória quietly.
