October 31, 1347 (midnight)
Dear Buttons,
Now I know why Mother doesn't tell me anything, she wants me to be happy and stay innocent.
I think I perfer it that way. Since the night has started I haven't been able to sleep, and when I finally get to drifting off I have nightmares.
Buttons, what if I get it? What if mother or Papa gets it? I was thinking of telling mother how scared i am but I don't want her to get mad at Roger.
She always tells me that he is 15 and can handle things better than I can. I don't think she likes it when I talk to him.
Mother doesn't think peasnts are clean. She doesn't even like it when Papa buys meat from Henry's shop.
She says that the meat is not clean because they are not clean. She simple refuses to eat anything bought from there so she went to bed hungry and without supper.
I'm feeling sleepy again. I am just going to say my prayers and drift to unconsciousness. If only silvester could talk...he seems to understand though. I guess thats good enough.
