Margarethe: Get away from me right now!
The wealthy woman slammed her glass onto the heavy mahogany table with sudden fury.
Margarethe: How dare you walk into my home dripping rain all over the marble floor!
Lily: I am just looking for help, ma'am.
The frightened young girl stepped back toward the grand doorway, holding her small jacket tight.
Margarethe: You have no business being here!
The child tripped slightly on her wet shoes and lost her footing on the slick floor.
Lily: Please, I did not mean to intrude.
A shiny gold locket tumbled from the girl's pocket and bounced against the cold marble.
Margarethe: What is that trinket doing on my floor?
Lily: That belongs to my late mother!
Margarethe: Wait... where did you get this picture?
