You leave her sitting down. As you go down the steps you can hear her crying loudly. I? J l Veine Dieu is at the blackboard. She is mak ing a mess of her multiplication. The board is behind Mademoiselle’s platform, so that Mademoiselle turns halfway around in her chair and twists her neck to watch her. From the side you can see her bun and half of her glasses, one of the steel rims with glass in it. The frame is hooked behind her ear. You can see it clearly because her hair is pulled back by the bun.
