*****

Abbie didn’t know where she was going. She was so upset she couldn’t see straight, and there were tears in her eyes which made it even harder to see. She had gone to talk to Prim, but the outcome of the decision had been the same.

Prim and Marge felt that there wasn’t enough food for all of them, and there wasn’t enough money coming in to support the three of them and the children.

“We know you love it here, and we love you… but the truth is the children need this place, and you don’t. You add a lot to this place, and we love that you are here, but I am afraid this is out of our control.”

“But… I feel that I should have a choice in this decision… or at least a little bit of say. Why can’t we take shifts… or why can’t Marge move? She has those rich relatives in the East…” Abbie knew that it was a stretch, but she was growing desperate.

“I’m sorry, but the decision is made. We have both been here for twice as long as you have, and we feel it is time for you to move on.”

Abbie didn’t stay to hear more. Her eyes filled with tears, and she hurried out of the room.

“Abbie! Wait!” Prim called, but Abbie kept going

She went right out the door and into the street. She still had plenty of time before it got dark out, so she walked without caring much where she went. Abbie’s thoughts ran through her brain so fast she had a hard time thinking at all.

Why can’t it be Marge or Prim that goes? How could they make this decision without me?

…and what are you going to do now?

The last question she asked herself was the one that hit the hardest, and it made her stop in her tracks. She wiped away the tears from her eyes with her finger, and she took a deep breath.

She could fight this, and she could be upset, but none of those things were going to help her now. She needed to stop and think. She needed to figure out what her next move was.

Abbie sat on a rock that was next to the road, and watched a bee fly from flower to flower.

If only you could be a bee… you could spend your day flying from flower to flower without a care in the world.

“I say there! Are you a part of the wedding?” Her thoughts were interrupted by a man that was walking by.

“What wedding?” She asked, before realizing that she was speaking with a stranger.

“The one that is taking place on the Old Parson’s place. Young Bill’s bride is supposed to arrive today, and everyone is up there waiting to see what she looks like.” He checked his watch, and lazily scratched his round belly.

“How do you marry a person when you don’t even know what they look like?” Abbie asked incredulously. She had never heard of such a thing, and she wasn’t sure if it sounded like a good idea.
