Chapter 40

• Georgina smiled at Mary and brought some water for her to drink. Which she gulped down gently and slowly pushed it aside to breathe.

• It took months for the burns on her body to heal, the scars were still there and she was still terrified of fire. Because it reminded her of that night; but Miss Georgina never made her feel like she was a burden.
• She took care of her, tended to her every need, and for that Mary could never thank her enough.
