[B][U]Mikota in school[/U][/B]

Mikota had been a little late today because she'd stopped to help an old woman pull her laundry in but she'd offered no excuses to the teacher. She'd found long ago no one believed nor cared for excuses so she kept any such to herself.
She took her seat an with practiced ease set out her desk for her days school work.
As she sat waiting to begin she glanced around the class noting several students expressions, especially the one mumbling to herself about forgetting stuff.
