The eternal newbie
The warden stops drumming his fingers on the desk as he has an idea. He tells the children that, since they're both new, they'll get off easy as long as they fix the wall. On the east side of the building, near where the washing lines are, part of the stone wall is starting to crack. Its high, daunting, and keeps the children caged inside the garden. The orphanage was going to hire someone to fix it, but since these children have nothing to do - he starts drumming his fingers again, staring them down - they can fix it. Cement and bricks have already arrived and are at the front of the house. This way, he says, it will be cheaper. Before they can reply, he holds up a finger, and points to each of them aggressively. They are not to eat until they finish. He then dismisses them with a flippant wave of his hand. Row openly scowls.
