I didn’t want to think about it.
Completely understandable.
“Charlotte, did you come in through the front door or the other entrance?” I asked.
There’s another entrance?
…I suppose that would be the entrance via the storm drain. This place was probably built with an actual regular door somewhere.
“Front door. I was thinking about taking these kids and running for it, but I didn’t know if you’d want-”
I think there’s a good chance she’d want that, at least now that the place is on fire.
“Secrecy is not that important right now. Take them down to the storm drain and stay there. It’s more or less fireproof, it’s not going to collapse on their heads, and it’s a better hiding spot than this.”
Oh yeah, good call.
It seemed like getting orders invigorated her. “Okay. Come on, guys. Get ready, shoes on, this way.”
Relatable. Now that she knows what the boss wants her to do, she can do it without worrying that she’s messing up.
