Chapter 8

************************************

I bravely decided to join Elizabeth and her friend but I still had no idea what to say. As I began to walk over to them, her friend looke up at me and I quickly blocked my mind to hers so I wouldn't see anything else disturbing today.

I asked Elizabeth if me and Wisty could sit for a moment. She said she would be delighted to have young company. I took that as a compliment and sat down.

There was a moment if strange silence before I broke it by saying,"Your necklace looks very nice."

"Thank you dear, I wore it as a child and it brings back so many memories." She sighed.

"My name is Ivy and this is Wisty. We are headed to Alabama. What about you?"

"Oh I'm headed off to see my grandchildren again. They live down in Mississippi."

"Ah, well I hope you have fun!" I said.

"Yes, well I hope so too." she said in a somewhat resigned voice.

"Do you not enjoy thier company?" I said trying to act as though I was a polite, well rounded child. I hoped it showed.

"Oh no I love to play with them, they are just so little and I'm afraid thier parents don't quite get along very well so, I'm always a bit worried when they ask me to come and spend a few days with them."

"Oh, I see your point. Well I hope that you can find a way to help thier parents. I'm pretty sure that Dad wants us back for dinner."

I winked behind my hand at Wisty. She caught on.

"Yeah, we'd better be going, but thanks for sharing with us." Wisty said.

"No problem sweethearts, oh by the way my name is Elizabeth Brundige."

"It was a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Brundige." I said

"Oh please, call me Elizabeth and the pleasure's all mine."

"Well, we'll see you around Elizabeth!"

"Goodbye ladies"

"Goodbye" we said in unison.

"Nice move playing the 'Dad's calling us' card. It totally worked!!" Wisty said as we left the traincar.

"Thanks, I knew it would." I replied.

We headed back to our own traincar to take our seats.

"Well, we didn't find out much about the necklace but that could be a valuable friend one day."

"True" I said.

We sat the rest of the ride in silence. Both lost in our own thoughts. The silence was loud but at the same time actually quite peaceful.

I was pretty tired and this was a pretty comfy seat...my eyelids were a bit heavy...I was a bit worn down...the next thing I knew I was off in dreamland.
