Quinto explained, "Something might have come up. Don't point the finger at Mommy. It's fine for us to wait here."
Facing the 'condemnation' of the nine children, the teacher quickly slipped away without saying any more words.
Primo giggled all of a sudden when the teacher left.
Flora asked, "Why are you laughing, Primo?"
Primo came forward and inquired, "Did your teacher pull out your hair?"
"No." Flora shook her head.
Octavia said, "Mine did. He said the hair is going to be used to test the trace elements in my body."
"Me too, me too..." said the other kids.
Everyone did except Flora.
"I did not give him my hair," Primo said proudly, "Mommy told me that my hair is thick because I eat well. Whoever pulls my hair is snatching all my tasty food!"
The other kids were stunned by Primo's remarks.
"So you didn't give your hair to the person?" Octavia asked.
