"You wouldn't dare!" You say.
The all of a sudden Matron booms, " STOP all this chitter chatter and start scrubbing!"
Eliza and her sheepish friends run off down the corridor and don't look back.
"Do you think they'll tell?" Asks Ella.
"I'm not sure but we have to stay quiet now, we don't know when they could be listening.Now that you've finished your chores for the day, everyone slopes off to bed.
