Something about this didn't feel right to Cecile, if this was the stranger Geralds was so anxious about then she'd better keep from being seen, and probably try to mislead the gentlemen before going back inside.

Well then who're you mister? I was told not to let strangers inside. My parents were inside talkin about boring stuff with Mr. Hurst, and he told me to go "scamper off while the grownups talked", but this place is sooooooo boring!
