After eating and drinking its fill the night before, it secretly squeezed open the sliding door and then flew away from the balcony.
Lucille was aware of all that, so when she saw the empty table, she was not surprised at all.
She went downstairs after washing up.
Downstairs, Madam Dahlia said, "Breakfast is ready, Miss Lucille."
"Okay."
Lucille entered the dining room and sat down. Madam Dahlia went upstairs to clean the room for her.
Soon, Molly came down from upstairs.
"Good morning, Bobo."
"Morning."
Lucille took a sip of warm milk, looked at the time, and said, "I have to go to school after breakfast. Do you want to go with me, you couch potato?"
"No." Molly shook her head vigorously like a rattle and pouted. "I don't like those people. They're bad!"
"Okay. You don't have to come, then."
