It's been 34 days since Elizabeth started living in the children's home, and as of now she's fallen into a bit of a routine

She would wake up around 6 or 6:30 in the morning, and get ready for the day, then she would help miss raven with breakfast, which everyone would eat around 7, after that miss raven took it upon her to teach Elizabeth how to read and write, which she was really grateful for

The lessons would last until about 9 in the morning, then she would spend time with the rest of the children until it's time for lunch, at this point she had learned Sebastian's peculiarity, the ability can see the ghost of those deceased, she got to know everyone in the house, and she got along fine with them, Everyone except Enoch

He didn't exactly insulted her or anything of the sort, as a matter of fact, most of the time he didn't really acknowledged her presence, she would notice the occasional huff of annoyance or the eye-roll when she said something, but most times he would just ignore her like she didn't exist, but she could sense how vexed he felt around her

Elizabeth knew fully that Enoch was not fond of her, although she didn't really knew why, but she didn't bother much to try and be friends with him, she knew better than to press on the matter, after all, she was still the new to the place , she was a stranger to them and most everyone still treated her like one of there own, which according to them she was

After lunch the everyone would disperse to complete their assigned chores before dinner at 7pm, some chores were assigned randomly, wash the dirty plates after the meal or sweep the porch, others were a little more unusual

For example, Veronica used her abilities to care for animals that lived in a small farm on the far end of the garden, although Veronica told her that she didn't enjoy eating them so she never gave herself the displeasure to do so, but she sustained herself with the fruits and vegetables the grew in the garden

Elizabeth got common chores, although she had the ability to fly, she never actually knew how, so she got the simplest chores in the house, help clean, cook, tend the garden, and other household chores

After dinner, everyone had free time for about 2 hours before the reset of the loop at 10pm, the first time Elizabeth experience the reset she was a little freaked out at the sight of the sky moving really quickly and changing colors, but she has gotten used to it and realized it was quiet beautiful to look at

After the reset everything would get ready to sleep around 10:30 or 11pm,everyday was pretty much the same, but Elizabeth didn't mind the repetition, she actually found some comfort on it

Although she was having a lovely time in her me home, she did needed time to adjust, she kept quiet most of the time and she never asked for anything, even though Miss raven said is okay if she wants to borrow something or even for someone to pass her the salt during dinner, she couldn't get rid of the fear of upsetting miss raven or anyone else in the house

She could hear her mean father's voice when he would get mad at her, and although almost everyone in this house has shown kindness to her, the feared of getting in trouble the way she did with her father was still in the back of her mind

She also had issues with sleeping, it wasn't because the bed was uncomfortable, on the contrary, it was the most comfortable bed she's ever slept on, her wings weren't hanging out of the sides of the bed so the dull pain on her back went away rather quickly
