I cannot sleep. I must to stay awake. I have been staring at my ceiling for what feels like an eternity, waiting for Dominique to give the signal. Dominique said that we must go tonight for it is a full moon, "He will only make our wish come true tonight Charlotte". She says "our wish" but it is only hers. You see I have been going along with everything Dominique has said for as long as I can remember. She has this heir about her that has you sure that she indeed knows all. And if one were not to do as she says, let's just say that you will stay away and out of view for a while. But as I have said I have known her for as long as I remember and I am loyal to her as she is to me.
I hear a rock hit the widow. It is time. I climb down from my balcony using a ladder that the servants left out. I am greeted by a very eager Dominique and a frightened Estelle.
"Hurry Charlotte, we need to be on our way." I do not talk back to Domonique knowing she will chastise me for not agreeing with her orders so I just nod and follow her as we go in the direction of the wish granter.
We now are outside of a shack covered with what appears to be animal bones and dried plants. This whole situation makes me quite uneasy, Dominique has often gotten us into situations where tend to question why I did not pretend to fall ill. Next to me Estelle who is Dominique's servant stands quivering. I lay my hand on her shoulder for support but I too feel as frightened as she.
"Oh please do stop that teeth chattering Estelle it is driving me mad" Dominique snaps. Estelle places her hands over her mouth and mumbles a yes ma'am as best as she can.
Then the door to the sack opens abruptly causing all of us to jump back. No one opened it... it has opened on its own, then an old man's voice calls us inside and we enter.
