They said it sounded quite interesting and they'd like to know more about it, so I arranged through my friend for them to receive a subscription to one of the groups' magazines.

The term was then nearly over. When I ran into Carol in the hall just after the final in our class, she told me that she had cancelled the subscription.

There had been a momentary lull with nothing to do, so they were all brightly chattering about lipstick and nail polish and their boyfriends. Carol was sitting with them, a slightly strained smile on her face, trying hard to seem interested.
