Emily hadn't really hurried through. She had picked a baby blue and white selection, not really caring which was which. She picked a vase - a black, glossy one - and as the teacher instructed them, Emily plucked up a packet, ripped it open, put the powdery substance and the water in it, covered the lid with her hand, shaking it about. Soon, she was finished and as the teacher had instructed, there was some kind of gel... Thing... Whatever it was, it was there, with bubbles.

Emily stuck the flowers in the vase, arranging it so the flowers were all mixed together, and looking around, found some baby's breath and placed it along the rims of the arrangement. In the end was a very pretty arrangement, all blue and white roses in the glossy, black vase with baby's breath sticking out the edges. She was finished. She stood next to it, trying to smile - but she coudln't. She just looked on interestedly as others finished.
