Re: Chapter 1.6: Mysteries
Waking up from her weird dreams, Annabel yawned and stretched, blinking the sleep her eyes. She looked at her dress from last night that she had laid out and smiled wistfully. It HAD been a fun evening, but today was a new day and there was business to do; boring business but necessary to Dr. Elias. Still, Annabel lingered a few minutes in bed enjoying the warmth before she got up to face the day.
Soon though, she was up and dressed in a sensible dark blue dress; she really would rather avoid black if possible and figured it was dark enough to be acceptable. Heading down, she found the others already up and about. eating and doing other things in preparation for the day.
"Morning," Annabel said cheerily; "I hope everyone slept reasonably well." Seeing the moody faces, and of course they would be from all that had happened, she dulled down her mood some as to not be so perky, and went through the motions of getting breakfast.
Soon she was sitting at the table and waited to see what was on the agenda for the day.
