277. Fanni · Dickinson (Pushing for recommendations and support)
Saturday morning.
A small table was surrounded by four girls.
Hela and Antonya were sitting opposite each other, with two other girls named Ingrid and Fanni sitting on either side.
Ingrid and Antonya had one thing in common: their fathers were both counts, and they were the two people in the entire class whose parents were second in status only to Cyril.
Because of this, the two had slowly begun simple conversations at the request of their parents and their own volition. Even though they didn't dislike each other, they didn't have many shared topics.
After all, both were only sixteen-year-old girls. Even though being born into a noble family meant they were more knowledgeable in so-called "etiquette" than others, it was difficult for them to force themselves to show particular affection for one another.
