Unfaltered

Inside the guidance office, a woman with a striking eyeglasses on her face was reading a thick psychology book. She was using a highlighter pen to color some lines of the words on the page that she was reading when she heard a knock on the door.

The woman looked up and consciously moved the wooden plate with her name carved in it.

Ms. Irene Trice

Guidance Counselor

"Come in!" the woman responded and tucked the book below her desk. She also made sure that the wooden plate was in the center of her office table.

"Hello, Ma'am Irene! My name is Sofia. I am a junior student in the night class," Sofia introduced herself the moment she stepped inside the office. She closed the door behind her and stood straight.

The guidance counselor adjusted her eyeglasses and looked at Sofia in scrutiny. The lady appeared confident while standing in her office.
