It was another usual day at Vorono High for Suni. Running through the school, evading Gira's plots to make him �hers�, and avoiding being swallowed in one way or another by one of the school's many other preds.
 
Today was getting better for him though, as he hadn't seen Gira for a few hours, and thought she must have either gone home, or was plotting again.
 
Whichever one, he was fine with for now because that meant that he could concentrate in his favorite block of classes, Art, Math, and History, taught by none other than Ms. Frances.
 
Her full name was Helga Francis, and she was the most...popular teacher at Vorono. She had this title for many different reasons, the main one being that she weighed roughly six hundred pounds, and it all was in the right places. She stood almost ten feet tall, and was a giant of a woman. She had the widest hips anyone had ever seen, and the chest to match. Her butt was something to be feared too, because if you acted out in her class too much she might just flatten you with it. She used her sexy body to help her students get excellent grades. Flaunting her bust right before a big test, or opening her sweater she wore every day to where you could see into her never ending cleavage. If her entire class ever got an A on a test, she would hug each and every one of them the next day. Her methods proved to be quite efficient.
 
 
Ms. Francis was also the most disciplined of the teaching staff. Meaning she would deal with students that got on her bad side, and rewarded those on her good side.
 
If a student were to get on her bad side, on a bad day for Helga, she would just send them to permanent detention within her gullet, never to be seen again. Or if they disrupted class one or two times, she would flatten them with her colossal butt.
 
Students that were fortunate enough to be on her good side, like Suni, would receive gifts of pleasure whenever they did well. Helga would tuck them into her massive canyon of cleavage under her thick sweater. If they were lucky, she would occasionally let students she really was proud of, spend class inside of her panties, where it was as warm as a burning fire.
 
Suni loved this class, but not for the rewards. Not for the trip down his teacher's cleavage, that actually scared him, or the lucky stay in her pants, that terrified him even more.
He liked it because the biggest pred in the school, who happened to also be his teacher, liked him, and never tried to eat him because he was small. Mostly because he would be less than an appetizer for her, but he didn�t like thinking of it that way. He wasn't in danger of being devoured, or stuffed into another frightening orifice. The only setback of that was, was that Gira was also on her good side somehow.
 
On several occasions, Suni had ended up with Gira in Helga's breasts. She had never tried anything, because disrupting class in any way, in this case eating another student, was absolutely unacceptable in class. That rule had already sent half a dozen students down Ms. Frances's throat to add to her girth. They weren�t killed, just bloated her ever inflated belly. Sometimes is a student kept disrupting class, she would keep them in her for a week.
 
Gira knew this, and never tried anything but stuff Suni down her own shirt without alerting Helga. He was never able to protest because Gira's own enormous breasts would smother him until he passed out.
 
Sumi now had a chance to do his work, and study in peace now that Gira wasn't here to pester him.
 
She would sit behind him and would constantly blow on his neck, and whisper stuff like �you're mine�, or make obscene sounds to annoy him. She liked to chew a huge wad of gum with her mouth open as she chomped. All without alerting Ms. Helga to her antics because she sat in the back.
 
Gira actually was at class today, but instead of being at her desk, she was watching Suni. She was observing how he acted without her being in class. Gira wanted to catch Suni off guard, and Ms. Francis�s class would be the best place to do so.
 
Every man that took her class ended up drooling over her beauty. The older teacher didn�t look a day over thirty, her light purple hair in a bun, and classic librarian glasses made men, and women drool.
 
Even though she knew she would never get to him in class with Helga watching, she had an idea of how to get Suni in trouble, so that he would be isolated.
For now, she watched, and noted how calm he was, and thought of when to put her plan in motion.
 
Usually Gira never required help to catch Suni, she actually didn't like asking for it. He was hers, and she would catch him on her own. Today, she wanted more, she wanted Suni where no one could see them, and he was her toy. So today, she asked...well, really threatened Jonathan, to sit a few spots behind Suni and wait for her signal.
 
At the right time, she would send the signal for him to switch out Suni's homework with a copy that had all the answers wrong.
 
Ms. Francis didn't like any of her students falling behind one bit. Even a student with an A in the class, if they turned something in that had a few wrong answers, she would ask to stay behind for extra lessons. No one could say no to her, because if they refused lessons, she would sit on them until they agreed, or swallow them for a few days with their textbook to keep them company.
 
 
Suni always, even with Gira in the room, completed his work and got it right every time. Several times in the past Helga had walked up to Suni, picked him up, and brought him to her face to plant a huge kiss on him. Her lips covered his entire face, and every time he feared she would toss him into her maw, and swallow.
Suni was good at testing, he earned a kiss like that for getting the highest grade in the class. Whoever got the highest grade, with, or without permission Helga would shove them down into her boiling panties to spend the day sweating next to her nether lips.
 
 
It had been about twenty five minutes, and Gira had kept a diligent watch over Suni the entire time. Finally, Suni got up to sharpen his dull, well used pencil, and Gira threw the signal to her accomplice Jonathan. Quickly, but quietly getting up from his chair, Gira's plant took Suni's work and replaced it with the fake.
 
Turning too fast for his feat though, Jonathan tripped. Crashing down the elevated steps in the classroom, he landed at the foot of Helga's desk.
 
�Oh well hello Jonathan, would you mind telling me what you're doing interrupting class again this week?�, Ms. Francis questioned, looking down at the shaking student. See, Jonathan was one of the students already on Helga's bad side, and this disruption was his last strike. �You know what happens to students that continue to bother my class, don't you�, she said while sauntering her mighty frame from her huge desk. �Please Ms. Francis, I only tripped coming down the stairs, it won't happen again, I swear!�. �Oh I know it won't be happening again Jonathan, because you're going to spend the rest of today churning in my belly with Philip and the others from this morning's detention�.
 
Moving quickly for a six hundred pound woman, Helga swung her waist down, and snagged him by the collar of his shirt and brought him up to her waiting, and dripping maw. She didn't take her time with troublesome students, as they were just a snack for her. Merely just meat for her stomach to lap at. She shoved Johnathan down her throat in one quick motion, and a single GULP later, he was making his way down to her rotund gut.
 
Gira had watched the whole thing, while stroking her pussy, and twisting her nipples of course. Her plan could not have gone more perfect. Not only had Jonathan done his job, but he managed to tie up her only loose end, himself. �Sorry Johnny, it was either going to be her, or me�, glad I got to see you take the short dive though.
 
 
During the entire event that had just transpired, Suni had been cowering in the corner of the room, clutching his pencil. He didn't like seeing Helga eat other students, not that they didn't on some level deserve it, but it scared him to imagine being sent down to gurgle in her belly.
 
Shaking the feeling, he stood up, and carefully made his way back to his desk. Forgetting to check his completed work, he relaxed in his chair, trying to stop thinking about Jonathan's fate.
 
The last thirty minutes of class, Suni and the other students turned in their work to Helga to grade. She did this so that if a student needed help, she could take note of who, and act accordingly. Marking the usual suspects, she got to Suni's paper. Usually flawless, Helga was supersized to find that not one thing was right on his work. Thinking something might be wrong with Suni, and not just him getting them all wrong, Helga thought to have a private chat with him after class.
 
�Suni, would you come here please?�. Suni shot up from his desk, not wanting to make his teacher wait. �yes Ms. Francis�, he quickly, but calmly stated. �Suni, I noticed on your paper that you were missing a lot of the answers, compared to your usual work, this has me concerned�. �I...but...which ans...�, was all he could get out before Helga spoke again. �It's alright Suni, you're not in trouble, I just would like to see you after class so I can talk to you, that's all�.
 
Not wanting to argue, Suni simple replied once again�yes Ms. Francis�, and returned to his desk, puzzled to how he got his answers wrong. He found the work easy enough, so what could have went wrong?
 
He spent the rest of the class going over his book, trying to figure out where he went wrong, and almost didn't hear the bell. He sat at his desk as the classroom emptied. Ms. Francis got up from her chair after the last student had left and shut the door, and with a click, locked it.
 
She turned to face Suni, still buried in his book. �Suni, come to my desk please�, she asked in her sweat, but demanding voice. He placed his book onto his desk and walked down to her. She sat in her throne of a chair as he arrived. Suni had only been to extra lessons one time, and that was from within Gira�s belly. Afraid that she would punish him, he waited for her to instruct him what to do next.
 
�I am worried that you might be slipping Suni�, �you�ve been doing well in class, as always, but I feel like you are distracted�. Suni didn�t know where she was going, but he didn�t like it. As Ms. Francis was talking to him she was unbuttoning her blouse, and she had let her hair down.
 
�You know how I feel about my students being distracted�, helga said as she stood from her chair, and started to saunter over to Suni. �I know you�re a smart boy Suni, lessons wouldn�t help you�. Now Suni was beginning to worry. She only talked this way when she was about to do something like eat a student, or sit on one.
 
�I am going to remind you just how much I care for my class�. Helga said, pulling Suni by his shirt closer to her desk. �M.mm..Ms. Helga wait�. �It�s ok Suni, come, feel my curves�. She pulled him into her now bare chest. Her soft, warm globes of flesh were left bare for Suni to now see. She draped her blouse over her chair, and stuffed Suni into her boobs.
 
Suni struggled as much as he could while encased in her breasts. Her salty cleavage sweat covering his body, soaking his shirt. Helga plopped her rear on top of her desk, and with Suni is her tits, began to fondle and rub her stomach. She mashed Suni between her breasts, pushing them together with both hands now. �Does that feel good Suni?, do you want to warm up a bit between my legs?�. �I will motivate you Suni, I will inspire you to become a more confident student�. Helga lifted Suni from her tits, and rested him on her tummy. �You�re lucky today Suni, this�ll be more like a hot bath than the usual warm rinse�. Helga removed her dress pants, letting them fall to the floor. Reaching her fingers under the thin straps of her damp, purple lace panties, she slid them off. Bringing them up to Suni, she tied her undergarments to Suni�s feet, not wanting to lose him like last time.
 
�Have fun Suni, see you in a bit�. �W..w..wait Ms. Helga, please, I might drown!� Suni, now shaking, managed to stutter out before he was plunged into Ms Francis�s ocean of a pussy. �Then I hope you save your breath hum�, Helga said as she brought a nipple to her mouth to suck on.
 
Still spying on her work, Gira watched from the window looking into Ms. Francis�s classroom. She couldn�t believe what that fat bitch Helga was doing with her Suni. She just wanted to mess with Suni be embarrassing him in front of his class, but now someone else but her was using HER suni as a sex toy.
 
Wanting to see just how far Helga would go with Suni, Gira continued to satch, and secretly pleasure herself to the view.
Pinching her own massive tits, and rubbing her clit, Gira would wait until she was just ready to cum, then intervene.
 
A torrent of cum smashed into Suni�s face as he breached the outer, and inner folds of Ms. Francis�s pussy. He wasn�t able to struggle, the make shift panty rope around his legs made sure of that. Any flailing he did with his arms, resulted in them just sliding off her rippling, convulsing walls. Helga didn�t lie when she said it would be like a bath. Suni was submerged in her cum, everything but his nose was above the lake of cum.
 
He didn�t know how long it had been, but Suni could feel himself running out of air. Helga�s water tight folds prevented any air from entering her vagina, he felt his lungs start to burn. On the brink of passing out, Suni felt a tug on his legs. Yanked from his underwater-prison like pussy, Suni fell onto Ms. Francis�s desk, coughing up what seemed like gallons of her cum.
 
�Oh Suni, you are absolutely drenched, here let me clean you off�. Suni had heard that phrase before, and tried to wiggle from his teacher�s grasp. Bringing Suni up to her lips, Helga took his whole body into her mouth. Passing into her chamber like mouth, a wave of hot air coated Suni�s face. Looking into her maw, was like looking down into a bottomless pit, which in reality, was actually what it was for Helga.
 
Thick strands of her saliva stretched over Suni as he was placed into her mouth. Her arm-like tongue slithered over his whole form. The wet, slimy muscle of hers left no surface unchecked as she sucked on Suni like candy. Every time she would swallow down his flavor, mixed with her own cum, Suni thought he would be going down her stomach with it. �Mmmmhmmmm, Suni you taste amazing�, I might add sucking to your next reward in class as a special for you�, helga said, even with a mouth full with her student.
 
After cleaning his body, Helga spit Suni back out, returning him to her desktop. He lay there, soaking wet from cum, and drool. His lungs ached for air, and he felt extremely dizzy. Relieved to be in the open air again though, all Suni thought wanted to do was rest for a few minutes. Before he got a chance to do so, Helga began to walk to the other end of her desk.
 
Suni, I hope what I am doing here has helped stress my concern with your attitude in my class. To show you the other side of things, the way I punish my students, I will suck your now lathered body, into my rear. Again, without giving Suni time to protest, Helga slammed her titanic sized ass onto the table, engulfing Suni into the void of darkness, and stale air that was his teacher�s own personal hellscape detention.
 
Seeing her toy Suni being eaten my Helga�s ass sent Gira over the edge. She hadn�t intended on cumming, but with a sight like that, how could she not. Sure she hated that this giant of a woman was using her Suni, but the kinkieness in which she did amused Gira. She hatched yet another plan, and ran to confront Ms. Francis about her new idea.
 
�Ohhh yes Suni, do you like being Ms. Francis�s butt plug?�. �I bet it�s hotter in there than my poor, lonely pussy�. �Here, let me give you a gift from my colon, I am sure you�ll love it�. With a small rumble from Helga�s gut, her lunch today came to say hello to Suni in the form of a loud Pfffffftt. The fart shook Suni�s whole being. Helga�s smart-car sized ass cheeks even wavered with the power of it. �Hmmm, that was a good one�, she sighed, giggling at the thought of how Suni had reacted to her flatulence.
 
Helga was going to let Suni bake in her ass for a while, when suddenly she heard a rather loud knock at her classroom door. She put her blouse back on, but not her pants, and headed to see who had come to visit her. Opening the door, Gira was standing there, face flushed, and panties obviously wet. �How may I help you Gira?, and can you tell my why you weren�t in class today?�
 
�Stuff it, you man stealing fat cow!, you used my toy, and I am hear to retrieve him�. �Gira!, you know better than to talk to your teacher in that manner�, you�re usually such a good student�. �If you are referring to Suni, I am reminding him how I motivate my class�. �You could use the same treatment young miss�.
 
�I am here to be with my Suni, in any way possible�. Gira said with a stern look being shot up at Helga. �Where do you have him tucked in that bloated body of yours?� Helga had never seen Gira talk this way to her before, and remembered to keep her teaching composure. �He is currently tucked into my oven, thinking on what happens to students that cause problems�. �Your oven?, you mean your ass�. �I saw you shove my man up there a earlier�. �Gira, were you spying on me when I was teaching Suni his lesson?� ASking her question, Helga remembered eying Gira�s wet pants when she was in the doorway. �Ohh, I see you liked what you saw then?�. Ms. Francis said as she pointed to Gira�s spot between her legs. �Yeah, what of it, you make all the men in Vorono drool, why not women?�. �Fair point young miss, would you like to join in on Suni�s final trip through my body today then?�. Gira knew that question was coming, and was all too ready to give her answer. �Yes, I want you to swallow both of us down into that fat stomach of yours�. �Just as long as we are together, I don�t care if it�s sloshing in your belly�.
 
�Well that settles it then, just let me retrieve your man, and you two will be on your way down shortly. Reaching under her colossal ass, Helga pulled onto the panties she still had tied to Suni�s legs. With an unceremonious yank, she pulled Suni from her dank cavern. �You�re free Suni, sit up like a good lad as I untie you. Suni was relieved to hear those words as he slowly made his body sit up. He rubbed his eyes, and took a few deep breaths of fresh air, and looked around.
 
What Suni saw, frightened him more than anything Ms. Francis had just done to him. Gira was standing right there, naked. Her own gigantic breasts, which somehow still defied gravity, were pointed right toward him. Her nipples looked rock hard, and her pussy was dripping, for Gira knew what was about to happen. The grin on her face gave away the game, and Suni asked Helga what Gira was doing here.
 
�Mm..m..ms. F.f..francis, w..wa..why di...did you le..le.let Gira into the room?�. Suni asked, his voice back to his stuttering ways whenever Gira was close to him.
 
�Sweety, Gira is also a student of mine, and can come, and go as she pleases�. Today though, she came here wanting to be with you, and I am going to help her with that�. �Wh..wha�.what d..do you me�.mean?�, he asked. �Well hum, I was going to swallow you down, and let you melt into an obedient student, but Gira here is going to join you�.
 
�Did you hear that my Suni, you and me are taking the plunge TOGETHER!� Shouted Gira, intentionally striking more fear into her toy. She loved to mess with him by doing that. Getting excited over Suni was so easy for her, it was fun. Watching him, eyes wide as ever, legs shaking, and his mouth agape, it made her pussy flair up just standing there.
 
�Well, it looks like it�s time to start class people�, Helga said in her teacher voice. �Who would like to be first?� �Can we go together Ms. Francis?� Asked Gira, in an almost childless girly tone. �Oh, well i don�t see why not, as long as Suni is ok with it� Not letting Suni answer, Gira picked up the helpless, frozen boy and stuffed him between her tits. �Oh he would love to, wouldn�t have it any other way�.
 
�If you say so�, shrugged Helga, walking over to the pair of students. �Come over here, and stay still, in order to take you both, I�ll have to almost deep throat you down to your feet�. �Sounds hot�, stated Gira, making Helga actually blush. �Oh thank you dear, it�s really nothing with my size though�. �Now hold still and have fun churning, I�ll see you later when you�re both my salves�.
 
�Slaves?� Gira asked, but didn�t get a response, as Helga�s maw descended down onto Suni and her.
 
Like helga said, it only took a woman of her mass a single gulp, to swallow them down. Suni was trying to flail his body, but being wedged between Gira�s boobs prevented him from doing much still. �Soon it will just be you and me in the biggest, gurgling gut in the entirety of Vorono my pet�. �Boiling and churning in her stomach, imagine the fun it will be�. �I�m not sure what fatty meant by becoming her slaves, but whatever it takes to be alone with my toy, is worth it.
 
Suni was able to shove on of her tits off his face, taking in air for the first time since being swallowed with his stalker, Suni got a few words in.
 
Gira, I..If you h..had ever paid at..attention in class, y.you wou..ld know tha..that Ms. Francis h..has the ab..ability to turn her students in...into her slaves.
 
�She can do that?�
 
�Y..yes�.
 
Suni gasped for air in between words as they slid down Helga�s slime-coated, rippling throat, that was wide enough to swallow a car.
 
Now with some air in his lungs, Suni was able to talk. �Anyone she swallows, and leaves in there, is melted and churned into one of her slaves. It�s how she has so many obedient students that used to be disruptive� �She�s going do to that to us?, cool�. �That means you�ll be forced to be around me, and I won�t have to chase you.
 
The significance of being slaves seemed to be lost to Gira. They were both going to be mindless students, keen on doing their work, and getting good grades. AFter what he had been through today, Suni simple accepted that he was going to be his Giant of a teacher�s snack, along with Gira. Then come out the other end, as a slave, ready to work. They reached Helga�s stomach and splashed down into the cavern of acid. �Well, here we are toy, want to mess around?�, asked Gira in the darkness of the belly. Suni didn�t want to move, he was so tired, digesting almost felt good to him now, as long as he got to sleep.
 
Gira wasn�t going to waist this though, she was going to use Suni whether he liked it, or not. She found his body next to hers, and straddled his face with her pussy. �Get sucking Suni, it�s the only way you�re going to get any air�. You�ll have to suck the oxygen out of my pussy to breath, and there isn�t much of it.
 
Not having much of a choice here, Suni began sucking Gira�s sticky lips. Every time she gyrates her massive hips over his face, Suni sucks out as much air as he can, while choking on her cum. He didn�t know half the time, if he was feeling cum, sweat, or stomach acids covering his face.
 
After face fucking Suni, Gira saw that his cock was actually hard. �Ohhhhh, Suni�.are you happy that you�re being fucked by me, or that you�re in the stomach of Ms. Francis, slowly being digested into one of her pets?� �Or is it both, you dirty toy�, Gira continued, further pressing Suni�s erection. �I�ll assume it�s for me, seeing as you can�t really talk with my clit in your mouth. Bending over, still keeping her vagina totally covering Suni�s face, Gita began to suck his cock as if it was the last blow pop in the world.
 
All the while this is going on, Helga was in her chair, enjoying the vibrations of the two rather busy students in her gut, and the soft gurgles of digesting them slowly. She was caressing her bloated belly, and sucking one of her nipples.
 
Remembering she had dropped Jonathan from her ass earlier as a fresh slave, she called him over from where he was quietly sitting. �Jonathan, come over here and bury your face in my hungry vagina�. �Yes teacher�, replied Jonathan, getting up and walking over to Helga�s drooling cunt. Kneeling down, he began to suck on Helga�s fist sized clit. �Hmmm, bot, you�re skilled yes, but my starving cunny needs more�, placing a hand on the boy�s head, and drove his body all the way inside. �Much better�, she said, now with a stuffed belly, and pussy. Helga began to use Jonathan as a human dildo, pushing and pulling him, in and out of her, she sat back and waited for her meal to digest.
 
Inside of Helga�s churning gut, we return to a the slightly melted forms of Gita, and Suni. Gira was currently sucking Suni�s cock, and engulfing his entire face with her nether lips. The sloshing, and sucking sounds coming from Gira�s mouth echoed through the inside of Helga�s stomach. Suni had already cum half a dozen times from this, and his mind had slipped into unconsciousness. So at this point, Gira was fucking a mindless piece of food for Helga. The level of fluid surrounding Gira and Suni was rising as Helga�s stomach entered full on digestion. Having eaten many prey in the past, Gira realized this, and planned accordingly.
 
As she feld her body begin to soften up, Gira pumped Suni�s limp cock as fast as she could. Suni�s cock came for the eleventh time, and Gira let his raw meat fall from her lips. Sitting back onto Suni�s face, her legs starting to become numb, Gira shoved Suni�s head into her own pussy. Wanting to be as close as possible in their last minutes together in Helga�s belly, she sucked Suni completely into her cunt. �Woah!, Suni you fit in there easier than ever before, must be how soft we are from Helga�s juices eating at our bodies�.
 
Gira laid down into the slop of acid and the digested fat from their bodies, and fingered her pussy to the feeling of Suni filling her pussy.
 
She closed her eyes, and listened to all the sounds of Helga�s mighty stomach start to work on her body at full strength. The echoing gurgles, and sloshes, paired with the moans of Helga herself soothed Gira to sleep. Her eyes fluttered, darkness was consuming Gira�s mind slowly as the churning stomach worked on her meat.
 
Helga had finished with Jonathan at this point, he was lying in a pool of cum at her feet. His mind, though tied to her will, was broken in spirit from the pleasure he received from Helga�s tunnel of a pussy. She sat back in her chair, gut churning away the remains of her meal, and her pussy drooling from pleasuring herself with her human dildo. Oh what it was to be the queen of Vorono.
 
Ms. Francis relaxed now that she had turned the two lovers in her belly to unrecognizable slop, soon to be reformed as her slaves. It would take a few hours for them to be processed through her body and reformed, then all she had to do was slide their wet, naked bodies out between her gelatinous cheeks. So until then, she would take a well deserved nap, content that soon her class will be running at full speed again for the coming test.
 
Hours passed, and Helga awoke to a familiar feeling in her gut. Her new pets were ready to be reborn from her ass, as loving, straight A students. She sauntered to her own personal bathroom in the back of her room, and sat upon her mighty porcelain throne.
It was made to hold her new pets as they exited her back door.
 
Helga huffed, and puffed as she pushed her pets out of her gaping hole. She could feel them approaching, their bodies slithering out together, not making it any easier. Squeezing with all her might, Helga felt their two heads crown her ass. Not wasting her efforts, she pushed their bodies from hers. Slipping into the large bowl, Gira and Suni plopped down in a heap of slime. Suni, of course was under Gira�s own ass cheeks, but he showed no struggle, and no panic.
 
Helga looked at her recently created slaves, they were beautiful. She did a test run on the naked forms in her toilet, �Students, step out of the toilet, and bring me my pants�. As she said, Gira and Suni left the bowl they were reborn into, and gathered Helga�s pants and panties. Each of them had to use both hands to carry the large articles of clothing. Offering them to Helga, they waited for further instruction.
 
�Good slaves, now go back into the classroom, get dressed, and start studying for the test next week. I expect both of you to get an A, and I don�t need to remind you what happens if you don�t. �Yes Ms. Francis, they both replied. Turning and leaving, they left Helga to get dressed. She fixed her hair, and makeup, then exited her restroom. The sight she saw as she entered her classroom caused her massive heart to flutter. Her students were doing as she asked, sitting quietly together, not fighting, and reading their books. She never got tired of seeing this, maybe someday she would start working on her own teaching staff and co-workers to turn them into better performing professionals, and teachers. For now though, she would stick with rewarding, and disciplining her class as she saw fit, though she was fine with either, as the results were relatively the same to her.
