Louisa went to the cupboard and got a telescope. She hadn't managed to buy one even with her recently-raised allowance. Carefully she carried it to one of the windows and placed it there, pointing its lens to the sky. Louisa glanced at the other students sneakily and did what they seemed to be doing, she put an eye on the see-through end and blinked. It was a very vast scene. So big and great.
The girl didn't even know what to look for exactly so she just stared through the telescope and enjoyed the sight. Mercury, on the other hand, could wait. Not that she knew what it looked it. Heh.
