[Anne's House of Dreams by Lucy Maud Montgomery]@TWC D-Link bookAnne's House of Dreams CHAPTER 33 9/17
And ever since I have felt as if I were in a dream." "You will soon adjust yourself to this new state of things, Leslie. And you are young--life is before you--you will have many beautiful years yet." "Perhaps I shall be able to look at it in that way after a while, Anne. Just now I feel too tired and indifferent to think about the future. I'm--I'm--Anne, I'm lonely.
I miss Dick.
Isn't it all very strange? Do you know, I was really fond of poor Dick--George, I suppose I should say--just as I would have been fond of a helpless child who depended on me for everything.
I would never have admitted it--I was really ashamed of it--because, you see, I had hated and despised Dick so much before he went away.
When I heard that Captain Jim was bringing him home I expected I would just feel the same to him.
