“So what’s wrong sis? I know that look and something is bothering you. Tell big brother all about it.”“You could always tell couldn’t you? G...ry and I broke up a couple of weeks ago and I’m having a hard time with it. I found out he was sleeping with someone else. I guess she was just younger and prettier than me.”Alan wrapped his arms around Ashley and held her against his chest with her head on his shoulder.“She may be younger but no one is prettier than my little sis. He must be stupid to let. .................. Cindy is staring at you with utter contempt. It is probably just as well you are so taken with your present task that you cannot see her."I can't believe it.

They called for the servants to help her to her bed, but when they tried to take the doll away she woke up and started pushing them away from her, never letting go of the doll. Anna helped her calm down, and quickly noticed the doll in her sisters arms. She couldn’t help but ask about it. When the topic of the doll came up a strange look crossed Chias face, one that was rare to see on her. It took Anna a few moments to figure out that it was love. Chia nuzzled her cheek against the dolls head.
