The phone jangled brightly in the office of Elizabeth Braddock, and Clarice jumped at the noise. Normally the office was locked, but obviously Ms Braddock had left it open before going into town. Like any teenager, Clarice moved to answer the phone.

“Hello? Xavier’s School,” she said, trying to sound professional.

"Hello." A crisp British accent sounded on the other end of the line. "May I speak with Ms Braddock please?"

“Um…she’s not here, right now. Can I take a message?” she quickly rummaged around the desk for a piece of paper and a pen.

"Yes. You can tell her that Doctor Nathaniel Essex called." He paused for a moment. "Whom am I speaking with, please?"

“ Dr. Es-ex,” she murmured, misspelling the name on the paper. “I’m Clarice.”

"Clarice." Essex paused for a long moment. "Well, hello Clarice."
