Murmur in the Crowd
At first, the neighbors were hesitant to believe Eliana. But when she mentioned which page and section on the handout she passed around had the information she was referring to, they had no choice but to believe the evidence in front of them.
As more neighbors went to the front to complain, more neighbors had their full attention on the packets of paper in front of them, and they continued to read what their board members had been up to. A slight hum fell over the crowd, which grew into a murmur and then a chatter. Suddenly, Kyle stopped the woman speaking. “Is there a problem here? Why is it so loud?” he asked.
