Mira stood just beyond the opening of the door into the kitchen. She felt awful for crossing Rudy and Hugo the night before, and was almost tempted to apoligize. But pride kept her back, pride in herself, and not wanting to let Peony down now that she had stood up for her.

Peony's vehement "Ma!" startled Mira into jumping backwards. She stumbled and nearly fell over her own feet, and by the time she had resumed her place by the door Peony was half through her false pretence to get Melilot out, and soon Mira's aunt had left the kitchen to go chase rabbits.

Peony's angry question, or rather statement, to Rudy would soon bring out what Hugo and Rudy thought, so Mira was hoping, but almost hopeless. She could tell Rudy was tired and rather grumpy. With a sigh, Mira sat down just inside the door to hear everything that was said.
