Chapter 4: Alone

When I heard the lock click, a whole new set of tears issued forth. I wanted my mother, and the father I never knew, and all my sisters and brothers.

I crawled up on my bed to look out the high window. I could see everything from there.

I saw my baby sister, Mathilda, running towards the stables where my brother Mitch would be. Nancy must have ordered her to go tell him of my accusation. When told, Mitch went off towards the house.

My hopes rose. Mitch will rescue me, I thought. Then Dame Olga was there, sending him back to the stables.

Never had I felt so alone, so utterly alone.

A/N: Wow, that's a lot shorter than I thought it would be. Oh well. Short and sappy, I know, but I have a better idea of whats coming. Still, I would greatly apprecialte suggestions! Love y'all! Curly Q
