Read this passage:
The doorknob shakes and rattles, and then there's a
pounding outside – fist to oak. Lilla sits up anxiously on
the couch. Again the knob, and then the jangle of keys.
Please be Maggie, Lilla whispers to herself. She stands
and leans against the doorway gently, listening for
breathing, trying to decide who has come to fetch her -
her mother or her sister.
