Ms. Moffly was staring at her. And she looked surprised. “Hi, Ms. Moffly! Not too much is going on. I’m just getting money from Dean,” Sophie said. “Excuse me?” said Ms. Moffly. She still looked surprised. But now she looked confused, too. “You can’t take money from other students, Sophie. Especially not in school.” Huh? “Oh … no!” Sophie got it. Ms. Moffly did not understand. “I’m not taking money. I earned it!” she explained. Sophie reached into her pocket. She pulled out one of her cards, turned it Sophie–side up, and handed it to Ms. Moffly. “I have a business,” she went on. “I’m going to make lots of money! I wanted to win the lottery, but my mom thinks that earning money is a better idea. So let me know if you need something done. I have deals for kids and grown-ups!” Ms. Moffly’s eyes went back and forth from Sophie’s card to Sophie. At last, her eyes moved to Dean. “Would you excuse us, please?” she asked. Then Ms. Moffly held her hand out toward the door.
