Time Period: A Flashback-A Time Before Dizzy's birth
Drizella's p.o.v
Even in my pregnant state, I tended to my garden. Riding on a horse, Francis approached my little
cottage. His reddish-brown hair and deep blue eyes shined in the sun. He got off his horse and
gave me a kiss. My mother and sisters observed us kissing through a window. "What brings you to
my cottage?" I asked my boyfriend. "I am planning to fight in the Ogre wars" he informed me. "I am
happy that you want to protect our homeland, but I fear you might die" I cried. My crazy hormones
brought on the tears. My family except for Francis knew I was pregnant. This revelation ate me up
inside. I hated keeping this secret from him. "I am pregnant. I am six weeks along. I am carrying
your child" I confessed. Happily, Francis kissed me and twirled me around. I assumed he was
excited about becoming a father. "We can become a permanent family after I return from war"
were his last words to me.

Drizella's p.o.v
There was a loud knock on the door. I stopped knitting immediately. My mother nor my sisters
cared enough to answer the door. I should've taken it easy in my pregnant state, but I gave in
anyway. A cute little messenger boy stood outside. "You must be Drizella Tremaine" The messenger
boy assumed. "Yes. I am Drizella" I confirmed. "Your boyfriend, Francis died in battle. He wanted
to say he loved you and the baby" he notified me. Grief-stricken, I slammed the door on him. I
forgot to tell him thank you. My distress brought on extremely painful contractions. Blood and
water soaked my dress. These signs signaled my baby's impending arrival. Mother, Anastasia,
and Cinderella helped me with the delivery. I was put in several different positions
because the baby was stuck. I screamed, bled, and pushed very hard until I felt
a great release. My newborn daughter, Abigail laid motionless in my arms. She
became fairy dust and disappeared eventually. I never saw her again.

Drizella's p.o.v
Holding onto pieces of a dying pipe dream, tears streamed down my face. I missed my baby angel so
much that my heart hurt. I developed a bad habit of mistaking young brown eyed girls with brown hair
for her. I wondered if my precious Abigail could've been one of them. Abby died at birth. I held her and she
transformed into fairy dust. Father Time and Mother Nature sent her to a new different realm.
Anyhow, a small hand slipped into my hand. "Please don't cry, mommy. It's me Abigail aka Dizzy" the
little girl introduced herself. I saw myself in her eyes.

Situation: Dizzy's death
Drizella's p.o.v
Such a great loss and blessing, Hope, an everlasting afterglow. Reminders of this beautiful dying
world of mine, continuously knocking on heaven's door. My angel, a poor sick sweet girl, ready to
embrace that bright white light. An unfortunate victim of cancer describes her tiny beating heart.
