Yesterday was such an exhausted day

I helped Damon with somethings he needed just for a few minutes, but other than that I was with Natalie the whole time... she was in pain, never-ending pain. I tried to do whatever I could to make her feel better...

Didn't really achieve that but at least she was not screaming anymore

To be honest, today I thought it was gonna be different, better. Unfortunately it wasn't... Natalie wasn't feeling better at all and that wasn't the only thing

While I was eating breakfast I heard some girls murmuring about Natalie's bite

I heard them agreeing that the bite came from Anguis, my snake. Which is wrong of course, because when I woke up that night, the snake was was right next to me so there is no possibility at all that it was responsible for her accident

Lies

I mean yes the bites gives us the impression that a snake did it. But the snake doesn't have to be MY snake right?

It's just coincidence. Yes

Anyway I just continued eating without saying anything. Not that I could say anything. It would have only led to as argue about something we couldn't be sure and may never finding out...

Natalie got up from the bed and ate a few bites but other than that she stayed at her bed
If she could take the painkillers without eating anything then she would.

We were taking shifts in watching her so she wouldn't be alone for even a second

My shift starts again in half an hour so I just grabbed my book and lay down, making sure Anguis was right next to me... just to make sure and prove to the others that if anything else happens, she isn't responsible

'A Divine Image .2 '

"To Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love
All pray in their distress;
And to these virtues of delight
Return their thankfulness.

For Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love       
Is God, our Father dear,
And Mercy, Pity, Peace, and Love
Is man, His child and care.

For Mercy has a human heart,
Pity a human face,       
And Love, the human form divine,
And Peace, the human dress.

Then every man, of every clime,
That prays in his distress,
Prays to the human form divine,       
Love, Mercy, Pity, Peace.

And all must love the human form,
In heathen, Turk, or Jew;
Where Mercy, Love, and Pity dwell
There God is dwelling too. " 

'The Schoolboy'

"I love to rise in a summer morn
When the birds sing on every tree;
The distant huntsman winds his horn,
And the skylark sings with me.
O! what sweet company!

But to go to school on a summer morn,
O! it drives all joy away;
Under a cruel eye outworn,
The little ones spend the day
In sighing and dismay.

Ah! then at times I drooping sit,
And spend many an anxious hour,
Nor in my book can I take delight,
Nor sit in learning's bower,
Worn thro' with the dreary shower.

How can the bird that is born for joy
Sit in a cage and sing?
How can a child, when fears annoy,
But droop his tender wing,
And forget his youthful spring?

O! father and mother, if buds are nipped
And blossoms blown away,
And if the tender plants are stripped
Of their joy in the springing day,
By sorrow and care's dismay,

How shall the summer arise in joy,
Or the summer's fruits appear?
Or how shall we gather what griefs destroy,
Or bless the mellowing year,
When the blasts of winter appear?"

"You really are obsessed with that book, aren't you" Klaus interrupted me

"And you really are aware of how to scare me, aren't you" I groaned and he rolled my eyes

"I didn't know you wanted to be a doctor" He said

"Yeah that's because you don't know anything about me" I snapped

"So what you are the mummy's daughter?" He continued not caring about what I said to him

" I don't want to be a doctor just because my mother is one. My mother was the one who show me how beautiful it is to save someone's life " I explained

"So you are that kind of girl" he said

"What kind?" I asked confused

"The kind of girl that doesn't puke when sees blood" he joked and I chuckled

"Yes I am" I proudly said

"So you want to be a doctor, cause you like it. Yet you are afraid... I can see it in your eyes" he said

"Don't act like you know me well enough, that you can just read me that easy ok?" I rolled my eyes

"Oh but I can read you that easy .." He insisted

"Try" I narrowed mu eyes

"You are afraid of the failure... you want to save lives but you aren't brave enough to  admit to yourself that you will take lives too" he said and I let out a breath

"I'm just afraid..." I whispered

"Of failure" he completed my sentence with a whisper
