(MAY NOT MAKE SENSE FOR SOME PEOPLE)

Ezra POV

We all followed Harriet.

She started showing us around and introduced us to the people working there.

Im highly impressed.

"This tour is the most amazing, outstanding, extraordinary thing I've ever been in. And i dont say stuff like that very often." Ava said.

I looked at Ava.

She says that every other day..

Meanwhile, during the tour. Maudie wont stop asking Harriet questions.

Questions like 'You sound Australian, are you Australian?'

"May i ask another question? Last one. Promise." Maudie said sheepishly

She said that 5 questions ago.

But hey

That's kinda cute.

And Harriet doesn't seem to mind

"Sure." Harriet said sweetly

"Hallen is full American. Your Hallen's niece. What makes you Australian?" Maudie asked.

"Oh I was actually adopted..." Harriet said as her expression slowly changed.

"Oh......" Maudie said as she looked down.

She must have felt bad.

"Nonono, don't feel bad." Harriet said as she placed her hand on Maudie's houlder.

"Its really no Biggie. Im happy that Hallen's sister adopted me." Harriet said as she raised Maudie's chin up.

Honestly, even though Harriet was only a year older than us.

She acts like she's over 20.

Maudie smiled.

"Yeah who wouldn't want to adopt you? Your amazing." Maudie said.

"Thanks Mauds." Harriet said with a wink.

"Actually, only Ezra gets to call me Mauds..." Maudie said.

Maudie looked at me.

I could feel my heart thumping.

She wouldn't even let Cool Harriet call her Mauds.

"Hmmm, thats Interesting." Harriet said.

She smiled and crossed her arms.

I gulped.

"Anyways, we still have another 30 minutes. Anddd there isn't really anything else to show you. So, What do you guys wanna do before your meeting starts?" Harriet said.

"What do you have in mind?" Ava asked Harriet.

"Hmmm I think i have an idea..." Harriet said.

.

.

.

Somehow, we ended up at the roof of the building.

"Why are we here?" Maudie asked

"We're here to just hang out and let our frustrations out." Harriet said as she stretched out her arms.

Harriet is quite interesting...

"Wait. This is the perfect place to take photos." Ava squealed.
