Chapter 3
The next day went fairly uneventfully. Alyssa just wandered around the train all day, occasionally talking to people. Sometimes she would read a book that was in the compartment, write poetry, or just sit there, watching the world go by through the window.
The only big thing that happened (it was actually quite big) was that she was reading and got really tired, and fell fast asleep earlier than she intended, missing the stop in Illinois.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The next day, Alyssa was still scolding herself for not waking up in time to get off in Illinois, but she decided that Ohio was just as good. She still loved the freedom to choose who she talked to, what she ate, and now where she was going.
When she had woken up at about 7:30 that morning, she had found a boy of about 9 or 10 watching her. When he saw that she was awake he made to move quickly out of the compartment.
"Please wait!" Alyssa called to him.
He looked back hesitantly, took off his hat, and glanced around nervously, while not looking at his feet. "Miss." he mumbled.
"Come here," Alyssa smiled when he backed away, "Don't worry, I won't bite."
He stood there thinking about it for a moment, then shut the door and walked over slowly and sat across from her, a little to the right.
"So," Alyssa said, leaning forward, with her hands in her lap, "Did you lose your tongue, or are you going to tell me your name?"
He looked at her frightfully, and said extremely quickly, "I'se is real sorry miss, I'se didn't mean ta be watchin' ya like dat, but da door was open, and wid your perty white night dress, and da light on your hair, you'se looked like da angel dat I need. Please don't turn me inta da bulls, I'se already escaped once, I'se don't wanna have ta do it again. And I-"
Alyssa cut him off, "Angel? The bulls? What are you talking about?"
"Don' matta," He shook his head, almost apologetically, "Where are you'se getting' off at, miss?"
"For one thing," Alyssa answered, "I think I will be getting off in Ohio, but I'm not quite sure; it doesn't really matter anyway. For another, stop calling me miss! I do have a name you know."
The boy laughed, "Den wut is it?"
She stood up and curtseyed, grinning, "My name, sir, is-"
She was violently interrupted when the train suddenly stopped. Apparently, there had been a mini-collision, but was not as bad as it could have been, as the conductor had stopped quickly.
The bad thing was that Alyssa fell forward and sideways and hit her head very hard on the window, and fell into the blackness of unconsciousness.
