CHAPTER THIRTEEN

That night, Frannie tossed and turned. It amazed her to have discovered that strait-laced Sebastian was a romantic at heart! To think, he’d written all those notes. He might have done it as any student, dutifully, only of necessity. But he’d kept the notes. He’d put them in the books where they pertained. He must have intended upon reading them again. And how his eyes had suddenly burned with appreciation when she spoke of them! But it might have had nothing to do with her. He had been reminded of his enjoyment of Shakespeare, or perhaps the feeling of youthful days in academia. He might have been put in mind of visits home between terms when his father was alive.

His father. If only she had a father. One with a name, that is. She sighed. She thought of Mrs. Fanshawe who despised her, and hoped heartily she would not again see that lady; but what chance that, when speaking to her husband seemed of paramount importance to discover the truth of Frannie’s past? When she fell asleep, she dreamt Mrs. Fanshawe was pushing her out of her house, pointing her to the street, to poverty, to infamy. Frannie’s tears were to no avail. The young Miss Fanshawe appeared, but she too, coldly turned away. As Frannie pounded on the Arundellsʼ front door in her dream, she awoke. She had forgotten about the Arundells earlier in the dream, but suddenly remembered. It wasn’t Mrs. Arundell her dreaming self hoped fervently would open the door, and whose arms she would rush headlong into, however. Neither was it Edward.
