…up to no good

Putting thoughts of being wealthy out of her mind, she went back to thinking of local gossip. A few minutes, her musings were interrupted when Dree ran down the stairs and out the back door. That boy was up to something, she was sure of it. He had been seen talking to Miss Ala and that Offy fellow more than once.
What could he be up to? Golta wondered if he was planning on running away from home, something that very rarely happened in this or most other Towns. Now that would be some wonderful gossip. Of course, it was much more likely that he was listening to the Offy tell stories or something. There wouldn’t be any exciting stories from Miss Ala, that’s for sure. Her life was as boring as Golta’s was.
All the same, it might be a good idea to keep an eye on Dree, even if all she found out was that he was just learning Offy stories to tell Miss Helma.
