How still it was. She might have been the only person awake in the whole world. The whispering of the grass sounded to Sally like the voices of the children who had played here long ago — the other Sally, and Patience, and little Bub. How nice it would be to have someone to play with! Shadow wasn’t really very satisfactory, even when he was around. She missed her friends at home.

Snap! The sudden noise made her jump. She looked up at the high wall of the apartment building beneath which she was standing. Just above her head, the cord of a window shade was swaying back and forth, as if the shade had snapped up suddenly. To Sally’s surprise, she saw beneath the shade, and just showing over the edge of the window sill, a red ribbon tied in a neat bow. The bow was trembling. As Sally watched, the bow slowly rose and was followed by a bright yellow head, which was followed in turn by a pair of round blue eyes, a turned-up nose, and a curly mouth rather like Elizabeth’s, which seemed to be trying hard not to tremble.

The girl — for it was a girl — leaned out of the window and looked down at her. Two very long yellow braids slipped forward and hung out of the window against the brick wall. The girl raised her hand and took a bite from a cooky. She continued to stare solemnly down at Sally.

Sally stared back, too surprised to say anything.
