Chapter
What Might Have Been
What Might Have Been begins with the sun blazing down on an otherwise lazy Sunday, the kind of day designed for doing nothing at all. Yet, Dolly, with her characteristic whimsy, declares that the flower pots lining one side of the terrace would look infinitely better on the other. Her suggestion, impractical and ill-timed, carries the soft tyranny of someone who always gets their way through sheer conviction. Archie, ever obliging and faintly exasperated, takes up the task without protest. The rest of the…-

Un Morso doo Pang begins in a quiet, firelit room, where Tessie repeats a foreign phrase with hesitant precision. Her voice wavers, not from a lack of courage, but from the weight of the moment—it’s not just a lesson in language, but a declaration of intent. Angie, patient and grounded, corrects her gently, encouraging not just her pronunciation but her self-belief. Tessie’s lips form the words again, this time with more clarity, her eyes lit by something deeper than understanding. It’s hope.…-

The Maternal Feminine [1919]
The Maternal Feminine begins in a room where the atmosphere is tense but quiet, filled with a stillness that holds space for both anticipation and mourning. Sophy, seated calmly with her hands gently resting in her lap, looked every bit the composed elder, yet behind her quiet exterior was an awareness of the weight about to descend. When Marian King entered, she brought not just information but presence—firm and capable, with a kind of warmth that disarmed without softening the truth. Her youth…-

The Little Wretch
The Little Wretch begins with Mrs. Hilary Musgrave sternly condemning young Johnny Tompkins, labeling him with disdain for his past indiscretions. To her, Johnny represents wasted potential and a dangerous flirtation with crime, especially after he embezzled nearly a thousand pounds. The fact that he wasn’t prosecuted, thanks to Hilary Musgrave’s influence, unsettles her more than she lets on.
