Next morning Bebe was up early and still grieving over her beloved little dog and also avoided her father at all costs as she hated him now hurting her like that and she also found out he sold off her pony but worse she'd have to face him later as this was the last day in the house as they'd be leaving for south Hampton tomorrow and despite the half empty house her parents had organised an afternoon fairwell party as they'd be up early in the morning and good thing was those family coming too would stay overnight with them

Bebe wandererd through the almost empty house now her footsteps echoed on whe bare floors as some of the carpets had been lifted and now it seemed she didn't know the house it was cold and strange and even the rooms she loved were I inviting it seemed and the big drawing room where Bebe spent most of her time was now bare and a few pieces of furniture that they weren't taking were covered in white sheets and the carpet was gone

' Suddenly in her minds eye a little girl of 5 ran by her wearing a red velvet dress white lacy tights fancy boys and her long blonde hair in curls and a red bow and knelt down beside a very large Christmas tree opening gifts and also the room looked beautiful decorated for Christmas and a huge fire threw out a lovely heart and a well dressed couple came into the room carrying a large box that seemed to move

" Happy Christmas darling they both said placing the box on the floor

' Oh mamma papa what is it a new dress a dolly books ..? Asked the little girl all excited

' Well open and see before your gift escapes ' The woman said with a laugh as something tried to push up the lid of the box the gift was alive

' OMG a puppy a puppy ' The little girl said lifting out a tiny whippering spaniel puppy and hugged it

' It's a little girl the owner of the puppy's mamma said she called the puppy Truffles so do you like her darling ..? Asked the man

' Oh papa I love her she's so adorable thank you so much ' The little girl said running over to hug her parents and that's when it hit Bebe she know who the girl was it was her aged 5 when she first got Truffles back in carefree happy times and also Bebe could see herself later that day playing with Truffles with a small ball and her mother was playing Christmas carols on the piano and her father singing and Annie an elderly maid they used to have bringin in tea and she was humming the carols all day oh to go back to those days of her carefree childhood when her main consen was making sure her favourite china dolls dress matched her and Truffles Bow

Bebe uncoverd one of the chairs that they weren't taking and sat down for a bit playing out her past like a movie in her mind and of the other rooms too and seen faces from her past her old nanny her governess who taught her her music teacher and staff that was no longer with them and ether had left for new posts or died as some of the staff was elderly and it was when Bebe was deeply lost in thought she didn't hear her mother come in

' Oh here you are I have been looking every where for you yo8 should be getting ready for the party the guests will be here in an hour and you can put on your nice afternoon dress the peach one is nice ' Angela said as Bebe sighed

' I suppose it is but I am not going I don't feel well mamma ' Bebe said shocking Angela a little

' You look fine to me and feel alright ' her mother said placing her hand on Bebe's forehead

' Perhaps I should call a doctor and you need a tonic ' Angela said

' No no please I'll be fine after a lie down just leave me please ' Bebe said sighing and looking away at the large bay window

' Bebe you have to tell me what is wrong why are you trying to get out of today's little gathering I know you so well and your bad at faking being sick their is something bothering you and I want to know what ' Angela said

' Alright I'm nit really sick well maybe I am I'm sick of my papa doing this first making me marry Erick then taking us all to America and now killing the dogs and Truffles and your standing by him I thought you were strong momma you spoke about backing the suffragettes behind papas back as he can't stand those women I don't want to leave here and all my memories and this room is full of them when I look around I see the large fire the big Christmas tree beautiful Christmas decorations around the room you in a new gown sitting at the piano papa standing nearby singing and me playing with Truffles on the floor such beautiful memories oh mama surly you must have memories here too and do you really want to leave here ' Bebe said as her mother Sighrd

' This is your fathers big chance and it means so much to him he's worked so hard too and also we will have more money in America and a bigger house it's an opportunity he may never get again try seeing it from his point darling ' Said Angela

'I have tried that mama and so you keep saying but deep down do you want to move and leave all your friends behind ...? Asked Bebe as Angela shook her head

' Not really but we have to do as your papa says he is the mater of the house really and we can make new memories at the new house Oh Bebe please be happy for him he has your best interests at heart and believe it or not he dose love you so much and he wants to give you and Eric the best start in life and in America you will both want for nothing and all the pets you want 'Said Angela

' He wants the best for me oh mamma if he did that he wouldn't force me to marry Eric I don't even like him and I want to stay here in England not travel to a strange country I don't know 'Bebe begin but her mom cut her off

'Look Bebe we have been over this so many times and I can't change things I'm sorry but we will have to go along with what your papa says he makes the rules in this house and we follow them and that's how things are ' Angela said getting up to leave the room and Bebe sighed standing up herself

' So are you all set for tomorrow then will be exciting ' Said a girl they called Red later that day at the party who was a distant family member tooalong with her cousin Craig and his sister Tricia ( ruby )

' No not really I just don't want to go my papa is so dictating and after the carry on with shooting my dog well I'll never forgive him ' Bebe said

' Wasn't Truffles not really old anyway a good age for a dog 'Said Craig coming over

' Yes she was and I know what your going to say she'd have died anyway but I wanted her to go peacefully in her sleep not shot like that my father just doesn't care and he also shot his own dogs and thought they weren't my dogs we got along and they were friendly oh I wish I waswnr going on this trip I'm dreading it ' Said Bebe sighing

For Bebe the afternoon party turned out a disaster really and a few of her friends siad she was being selfish acting the way she was and they'd give anything to go on a brand new luxury liner to. a wonderful new country and Bebe doesn't know how lucky she was but for Bebe's parents well the party was a success for them and eventually the guests left around 6 apart from Wendy her parents Stan and Kyle and their families and Cartman and his mother worse luck yet Bebe got on with Cartmans mom okay she was a nice woman but had spoiled Cartman and let him away with murder it seemed but no one said anything

Bebe didn't sleep that night as she missed Truffles so much and even though her and Wendy shared a room Wendy was asleep and Bebe didn't want to disturb her but she sat awake in her bed imagining herself as a small child playing tricks on nanny or playing with Truffles and also this would be her very last night in this room the room she moved into when she was just a baby and it held a lot of memories for her and she felt she'd be loosing them

Bebe eventually dropped off in the early hours but was up early as Martha came in and already Wendy was up sitting at the vanity brushing her hair

' Good morning girls did you both sleep well ..? Asked Martha in a cheery voice

' Mmm wonderful I had no idea how tired I was I guess it was all the excitement of the party and today but now I'm ready for breakfast " Said Wendy smiling

' That's good Miss Wendy and what about you miss Bebe did you sleep well ...? Asked Martha

' Not really I got bits of sleep guess just nervous an out today and I'm still missing Truffles it's not the same without her ' Sighed Bebe as Wendy shrugged not knowing what to say but their was no time to chaat really as the family were in a rush to leave

After breakfast was a nightmare saying goodbye as all the staff came out to wave everyone off yelling good luck and Bebe burst into tears hugging Martha as she was more than a maid she was a good friend but Martha said she'd visit one day so the small convoy of horses and carriages and mother cars set off and Bebe was in a car too she didn't mind the car but all her mom did was complain she hated cars and complained for ages but Bebe just looked out the window ignoring her parents talking and arguing and also it was decided that they'd stop off at a p;ace for the night and continue their journey to south Hampton in the morning where they'd board Titanic
