Lonely Dinner

Dawn stood by the dining, tears rolling down her eyes as she refused to sit down for her lone dinner.

It was over a month already since she was brought back to the country by her governess and she had only seen her mom once and was yet to set her eyes on either of her grandparents.

"I want my mom," she cried to her governess, who had been put in charge of her.

"Miss Dawn, we have been over this already. Your mother can't come to you now. Next week she will visit you. Until then, you have to be a nice young lady and dine alone, else you won't see her," Her governess said but that only made Dawn to cry harder.

"I want to go home. I miss my mom. I miss my grandfather and grandmother. I want to see them," Dawn cried, and the housekeeper who stood by the dining table snifled, earning her a warning glare from the governess.
