The Walled Garden

No, Ann confided to her godmother, there was not the slightest possibility that she would fall in love with her new employer, Michael Falcon, the head of St. Cyprian's Preparatory School. He was inconsiderate, unreasonable, dogmatic; he was also engaged to a beautiful but most unpleasant girl; and he thought that Ann was frivolous and had far too good an opinion of herself. Quite obviously two such people could never like or understand one another, and it was a good thing that he was only filling in at St. Cyprians for one term. At least they weren't indifferent to each other, and even out of such unpromising beginnings romance can grow. All of which showed that Ann still had a great deal to learn about love and life!
