Lily nodded but didn't speak for fear of crying because of her stupid thoughts. She gave a small smile at Anne before laying back on the sand.
-
Anne lay down next to her. She glanced at her friend, then adapted an expression of concern. 'Are you OK? Those are happy tears, yes? Not sad tears?'
-
Lily hesitated for a moment unsure of what to say. "Both" she whispered rolling onto her side.
-
'Both? Oh Lily, why are you sad? We've everything 14-year-olds could dream of!'
-
"I know, I know. I was thinking of my sister, she told me all about the beach as my parents had taken her when she was young" her voice was barely audible.
-
Anne held Lily's hand. 'You've me now. We'll be the best of friends,' she said, trying to be as comforting as possible.
-
Lily smiled softly. "I know" she stated embracing her friend.
-
Anne hugged her back, wrapping her arm around Lily's shoulders. 'Maybe you'll even be able to go to school with me. It'd be awesome to have you as a deskmate.'
-
"School?" Lily repeated fascinated. She'd heard of it of course, but didn't know much about it. She never thought she'd have the privilege to go to such a superior course.
-
'Yes. I'm a dunce at Geography, but everything else is pretty interesting,' Anne said with a shrug.
-
Lily blushed. "I'm not entirely sure what school is" she muttered.
-
'Oh, it's a place you go to learn in the lead-up to college. Mother thinks it's out of a woman's place to do a job that isn't Red Cross or teaching or anything that isn't too studious, but I don't want to teach.'
-
"Sounds lovely, I would love a job" Lily grinned.
-
'Of course, it costs a fee but nothing my family can't afford. Vacation ends in a month, maybe we can convince Mother to pay your school fees?'
-
Lily looked taken aback. "I can't ask that! I may be a beggar, but I ain't getting someone to pay ma bills for a school" she replied not knowing how rude she sounded.
