The Tutor/How it Began/The Study

You walk into the study and look around. It's beautifully furnished, with a large wooden bookcase and various pieces of comfortable looking furniture, which you assume is from the Victorian-era.

You notice two young girls on the nearby couch, playing excitedly with a deck of cards. The youngest girl has bright red hair and is wearing a cute dress. The older one is wearing glasses, resting on top of a cute button nose, with brown hair done up in a ponytail; she wears a smart-looking top with a short skirt.

"Do you have any Aces?" The older of the two asks.

"Ummm... nope?" The younger girl says doubtfully.

"Do you remember what an Ace looks like, Penny?"

"Of cwourse!" The youngest replies, seemingly annoyed at the implication of her ignorance.

"Let me see your cards really quick..." The older says as she leans over to look at the younger's hand.

"Stwop it! You're cheating!" The tiny redhead whines as she tries to hide her cards.

"Girls, behave! Your new Tutor, Mr. Michael is here." Ms. Johnson says as she enters the study. "Where's Nikki at?"

"She's still in the bafroom." The little redhead replies.

"That girl..." Ms. Johnson says as she heads back into the hallway, "Olivia, Penny, introduce yourselves to Mr. Michael while I go get Nikki."

Both of the young girls put down their cards and approach you slowly.
