Her head was feeling a little light headed, as a whole life-time of
memories entered her mind. It was very strange to remember things back in
the 1800's, or to remember ever being in love. There was really only one
memory that disturbed her, which was the one of after she drank from the
spring.
Winnie could remember how clear the water looked, and how it seemed to shimmer in the sunlight as she sat there letting her fingers play in the water. She also remembered how this was a choice she had to make, and every time she remember Jesse's last words about returning for her, Mr. Tuck's words also played in her mind. Winnie knew very well, that one drink from the spring would give her everlasting life, but then again if she didn't she'd be able to grow up.
Finally, she dipped her hands into the water, cupping some, and bringing it to her lips. Winnie then sipped in the water, and warmed up immediately to the wonderful taste, she had never drank such pure water.
"Winnie!!!" Her head jerked upright, as the voice of her mother called for her, it was then that she realized if she went back, her mother would be expecting a growing girl, not a girl that will be forever seventeen.
Tears peeked her eyes, she knew she had to leave, and she couldn't return.... the spring was a secret that she knew (especially after talking to Mr. Tuck) couldn't ever be told.
Winnie cried slightly, as she lied on the couch remembering the day she left her family forever. That wasn't the only reason why she was crying though. While she was off on her own, a year after she ran away decided to go back, to at least see how her parents were taking there loss.... but when she found what they had done, she felt as if her whole world had fallen.
When Winnie returned, she found a girl just about her age, sitting and playing the piano, where she once played for her mother.
"Yes, Winnie... Your doing marvelous," she heard her mother say clapping her hands together splendidly.
It wasn't long later, that she discovered what was going on, apparently three months after she ran away, her parents adopted a girl about her age. They named her Winnie, and basically replaced their real Winnie, and seemed to have preferred this Winnie over their real daughter.
For instance, her mother had finally gotten the young girl she always wanted to see in Winnie. This Winnie played the piano better then she ever did, and when ever her mother wished.
Winnie now lied on the couch crying silently to herself, she had finally remembered who her family was, but just discovered she was easily replaced.
This would explain why there was a grave out front of her old house, saying:
Winnie, Foster
Dear wife, Dear mother
1816
Winnie felt cheap, she felt as if she was nothing, and could never be anything but nothing, especially if she could have been replaced in a family so easily. As she lied there, a stream of light seeped in from under the dark curtains that hung lengthy over the window. She knew that morning had dawned on her, and wasn't at all prepared to share her discovered secret to the Tuck's.
