Anne's p.o.v continued

The atmosphere is ripe for a change of scenery. "Mommy, I love you. Please take me home with

you. Don't let them take me" Nate pleads pulling on my dress. "I love you, but you don't belong to

me anymore. I have found a family for you. My job is done" my voice cracks. "But mommy.." Nate

trails off. I have to look away so that I may not go back on my word. My heart feels somewhat at

peace watching the carriage drive away. I trust and believe Nate is in much better good hands.
