Back to Oz - Chapter 2
My iPad autocorrect decided to be a blitch today, so just let me know if there are any major writing errors because of it...
When she opened her eyes the next morning to see the sun shining through the bedroom curtains, she almost thought she was back in Oz. She ran over o the window, pulled the curtains away, just to reveal the plain old brown farm outside. She would probably never see he old friends ever again.
A weak bark greeted her as she left her room. She kneeled beside the little dog and hugged him carefully. "You remember Oz, don't you Toto?" She asked and scratched him behind the ear. As a reply he licked her hand. Poor old Toto. He hadn't been a youth 3 years ago, and now he was old and weak. Uncle Henry said Toto would die, but Dorothy didn't want to believe that. "You're not gonna die, are you?" She asked him.
Outside, the sun shone brightly. It was a beautiful day, te bet they're had in months. Dorothy smiled and hummer "over the rainbow" as she walked towards the barn. She wore a plain white dress and a pink apron. In 3 years, Dorothy had changed in quite a number of ways. She had curves now, and men admitted her when she walked past. Her hair glowed healthier, her eyes shone brighter, everything had improved, it seemed. Apart from her wits. She still clung on to her childhood's dreams. But of course, almost no one knew that.
Dorothy waved and smiled as she walked past Hunk, Zeke and Hickory who stood by the well discussing something loudly. They waved back, before continuing the discussion. Dorothy moved on, deciding she didn't want to interfere. It was strange, the three framhand reminded her somewhat of her three friends from Oz, but not enough.
"There is no place like Oz," Dorothy mumbled, and sighed.
