[ . . .

Fern can't help but give a tiny smile. Miss March is very charming, with the kind of confidence that isn't too self-serving. She definitely doesn't have that kind of charisma for her own part, but she can appreciate it coming from other people (other girls). ]

[ Weird, that being around March kind of makes her want to? ]
