Mathilda And Nicole: Perfume, Things Like That


Mathilda studies things like that.

Mathilda noticed when Nicole returned the bottle of perfume to the shelf, Nicole put down the bottle of perfume but then took a half step backward and looked left and right at the other bottles of perfume on the shelf.

Nicole stepped forward and reached out again to the bottle of perfume she just had taken down, tested and put back.

Nicole pushed the bottle of perfume slightly away from the edge of the shelf so the bottle of perfume she just had taken down, tested and put back lined up with the other bottles of perfume on the shelf.

Nicole turned the bottle of perfume slightly to the right.

None of the other bottles of perfume on the shelf faced directly forward.

Nicole walked away.

After Nicole walked away Mathilda looked left and right at all the bottles of perfume on the shelf.

If Mathilda hadn’t memorized which bottle of perfume Nicole just had taken down, tested and put back then there would be no way for Mathilda to determine which bottle of perfume Nicole just had taken down, tested and put back by looking at all the bottles of perfume on the shelf.

But Mathilda had memorized which bottle of perfume Nicole just had taken down, tested and put back among all the other bottles of perfume on the shelf.

Mathilda is careful about things like that.
