The night before didn\u2019t go very well. They had been given more jobs for silly things like: not cleaning the sinks well enough, saying that Mrs. Collines was being a little too strict, and eating their supper too slowly.<br>May got out of bed and woke the others up, \u201cWe have a busy day ahead of us, so we need to get up.\u201d<br>\u201cI\u2019m coming, I\u2019m coming.\u201d Rebeca said, tiredly.<br>The girls quickly got out of bed and got ready for the school day. Then May looked at the time, \u201cIt\u2019s only six forty-five! Maybe I got us up a little bit too early, I just didn\u2019t want to be late to breakfast.\u201d<br>\u201cWell, now we have more time to get to know each-other a little bit more.\u201d Said Maraline excitedly,<br>\u201cOr,\u201d said Rebeca with a grin on her face, \u201cWe could get to know the school a bit more.\u201d<br>\u201cRebeca!\u201d Maraline said shocked,<br>\u201cWhat? They never said we couldn\u2019t, so why not?\u201d Rebeca argued,<br>\u201cShe has a point,\u201d Jasmine said, \u201cMrs. Collins had told us about the rest of the stuff she punished us for, but not this.\u201d<br>\u201cI suppose,\u201d May concluded, \u201cMaraline, are you coming?\u201d<br>\u201cI suppose I have to, to keep you out of trouble,\u201d<br>\u201cYes!\u201d Rebeca said enthusiastically,<br>The girls quietly went out of there room, and into the hallway that lead to the other dorms. As they walked past an empty room with an open door, May peaked inside, the room was beautiful, the beds were new and it had wonderful comforters to keep the girls warm.<br>\u201cThe question is, if this room is empty, why didn\u2019t it go to someone with a bad room like us?\u201d May thought<br>sadly, \u201cTheir probably using this room for some other purpose,\u201d<br>\u201cShh, do you hear that?\u201d Rebeca asked,<br>\u201cNo, what is it?\u201d Jasmine said nervously,<br>\u201cI think someone is coming,\u201d Rebeca said starting to panic, \u201cWe need to leave now, run!\u201d The girls ran very fast past the empty room until they reached their room. Inside they all tumbled, breathing deeply.<br>\u201cThat was scary,\u201d May said, \u201cI don\u2019t think I will be able to do that again for a while. Maybe we can take note of when Mrs. Collines is patrolling to find a good time.\u201d<br>\u201cYeah, that would be good,\u201d Jasmine said,<br>\u201cI still don\u2019t think you should be doing this,\u201d Maraline said, \u201cYou will get into trouble, you know.\u201d<br>\u201cDon\u2019t be so sure Maraline, we can be sneaky.\u201d<br>\u201cMaybe, but I don\u2019t like to take the risk.\u201d Maraline said with a sigh, resigned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next day, May woke up to the sound of her alarm.
