I'm sorry! [Annika doesn't like to see people unhappy and 'I'm sorry' solves everything!]

Ok. Um… I was in my room. Mama and Papa were talking and I was wondering and then I was here.

[not_annika]

Ok. [Annika looks fidgety and worried but no one's trying to hurt her, so she's mostly ok.]

[There is a pause as Annika quietly panics at the loudness of the knock. Is someone angry at her? Eventually, she presses the open key, keeping out the way, peering out of the corner of the door.]

[Annika follows instructions.] Are you mad at me?

[Annika gives this consideration. Then comes to the most logical and simple conclusion.] Then… go away. [She's quite serious.]

[Annika looks around at her room. Very little has been tampered with. One wrapping from her present and a doll, now in her hands, pretty much is the worst of it. Even the unworn jumper is untouched.] Ridiculous? [Like what?]
