After breakfast, Jamie took Charlie to his preschool. It wasn't far. It was just a ten-minute drive.

From a distance, she spotted a teacher with long hair and a scarf standing at the preschool entrance, greeting parents and students. Recognizing her as Miss Georgia, Charlie's homeroom teacher, Jamie approached her with a smile. Miss Georgia crouched down to Charlie's level and beamed. "This must be Charlie! He's so handsome. What a little gentleman!"

Charlie, shy as ever, blushed and hid behind Jamie, peeking out to observe his new teacher.

Miss Georgia couldn't help but chuckle at how adorable he was.

Jamie smiled apologetically. "He's a little shy."

"That's perfectly normal. Kids this age are often like that. Would you like to take a quick tour of the preschool, Miss Lewis?"

"No, that's okay. I need to get to work. I'll stop by later after I finish for the day."

After giving a few parting instructions to Miss Georgia, Jamie waved goodbye to Charlie and left.

On her way to work, Jamie took a deep breath to calm her nerves.
