“My name is Charlotte. I have two sisters, and we just got a new puppy named Suki in July.
We got her from an animal shelter and she’s so, so cute!” “That’s great, Charlotte, thank you,” said Ms. Petosa.
“Okay, then, who’s next?”
Lamb to the Slaughter

“My name is August,” I said, and yeah, I kind of mumbled it. “What?” said someone.
“Can you speak up, honey?” said Ms. Petosa. “My name is August,” I said louder, forcing myself to look up.
“I, um... have a sister named Via and a dog named Daisy. And, um... that’s it.”
“Wonderful,” said Ms. Petosa. “Anyone have questions for August?” No one said anything.
“Okay, you’re next,” said Ms. Petosa to Jack. “Wait, I have a question for August,” said Julian, raising his hand.
