[The group of girls, along with Sofie, who is filling in for Caroline, arrived simultaneously at Jessie's residence.]

Sofie: Is this the location?

Jenny: That's what Jessie mentioned to us earlier by the lockers before the bell rang, just as Caroline rushed out.

Stephanie: Alright, let's head inside!

[As the girls approach the doorbell of Jessie's house, Jessie is inside anticipating their arrival.]

Jessie (thought): I really hope they didn't have trouble finding my house because it's quite remote from both the city and the school.

DING DONG

[Jessie responds to the doorbell and opens the door, discovering her friends gathered outside. She invites them into her home.]

Jessie (joyful): I'm so happy you all could make it. I'm pleased that you didn't get lost along the way.

Olivia: It was straightforward, but we arrived without any issues.

Jessie: Hold on, what do you mean by "without any issues"?

Emma (worried): Jessie? You haven't been informed about the things people have been saying at school recently.

Jessie: Not really… But would you mind sharing more details?

Stephanie: Let's go to your room and discuss privately.

Jessie: Sure, let's go there.

[Jessie and her friends walked through the kitchen and headed upstairs to reach Jessie's room.]
