'You shall help me?' Gina turned to her cousin sharply.
'I shall help you. While I help you with Ansley, you shall help me find my stranger.' Missy looked at the drawer where she kept the drawing of her stranger.
'I reckon there shall be no need for us to work at the tavern anymore.' Gina smiled.
'My stranger visited the tavern. He may return another day, but we must be there to serve him. We shall work at the tavern.' Missy announced.
Everything was beginning to look up for the two cousins. To them, it was impossible that anything could go wrong.
'Gina!'
To Gina, she was asleep and her aunty, Donna was screaming her name in her dream.
'Gina!'
The scream was louder but still, Gina did not get up from her bed. She laid there hoping she was still asleep. She knew what the day was, and she planned to act ill so that she may be excused from meeting with Ansley as he had requested.
'Gina, do you not hear me, child?' Donna threw the doors to Gina's room open.
