She would wear it this once, and then it would be packed away with all her other worldly possessions. The sadness in her indigo eyes deepened as she gazed around her bedroom. For many years she’d slept in this room, cried in this room, fought and played with her brothers in this same room . . . and always at the end of the day she prayed.
For days now she’d kept herself busy packing up her things in huge brass-bound trunks that would be carried to the attic when she left this house, this room,
...for the last time. There was very little left now to prove she’d inhabited it all these years, save her comb and brush and the jewelry she would wear for her birthday ball. When the clock struck midnight she’d be twenty-one years old. Parents and old friends would toast her and say good-bye. Only then would she smile.
At noon the next day she would leave for the convent, where she would lead a cloistered life until her death. It was the only thing she’d ever wanted. For years her parents had denied her entrance into the convent, saying she was too young and didn’t know her mind.
