"Also, I'm Winston," he said. Truth?
Ellie looked at him. Oh, boy. Pep talk to the extreme may have been a bad idea. But he seemed to have heard most of what she said. Hopefully? Ellie smiled, glad he was finally saying more than a few words to her. Hopefully she didn't scare him.
"You're welcome. I know the first year can be rough. Just wanted to help you out." She said with a smile and a wink. Call her Ellie, the school psychiatrist. Eh. Or not...
"It's very nice to meet you, Winston. My name is Ellie." She introduced with a smile.
