Emma: I am so sorry. I should have been paying attention, but my phone was ringing, and I had to see if it was important and I feel like I'm rambling.

The man pushes his hair behind his ears and smiles at Emma.

Jaylin: It's alright. My name is Jaylin Wright; I am the new English teacher here.

Emma: Nice to meet you. I'm Emma…Emma Nelson. I'm the Environmental Science teacher. I can show you around Degrassi if you would like.
