              “Good morning!” She announced to the room.

              “Good morning,” the whole room said back at once.

              The woman took her seat, and waited with everyone else for her number to be   (10)   as I looked around the room, surprised. Suddenly, everyone was comfortable with each other. We were all friends and neighbours.

              Even after eight years of living in Louisiana, it   (11)   makes me smile to know that I am not   (12)   here.
