Charlotte pulled on a carefully folded blouse and black skirt, not hitched, along with patent black shoes and grey tights. She tied the red tie around her neck, but loosened it when it pressed against her, reminding her of the moment that Krystal put her arms around her neck, as if she wanted to kill her. Charlotte realised that Krystal wanted to kill her, because Charlotte had tried to kill her. She stood back, grasping the desk to keep herself balanced. She paused, and calmed herself, before walking downstairs. "We have to go," she said, and began walking towards the door, hoping to get past Krystal and go alone.
