III The Library
The 다음 room Ember visited was to her a Heaven on Earth. An enormous room just for holding books! The ceiling was so high it would have taken ten of her standing on 상단, 맨 위로 of one another the reach it. The shelves and shelves of 책 were piled right up to the 상단, 맨 위로 and there were several ladders placed conveniently so that she could reach the topmost books.
Ember walked round the room as though she were in a dream. She loved 읽기 and devoured every book she found but she had never had a whole 도서관, 라이브러리 full of them to herself. She barely knew where to start. Every square inch of 벽 and floor 우주 was piled high with the most beautiful expensive leather bound books.
“There must be every book in the world in here” she thought to herself in awe.
Slowly she made her way around the piles of 책 until she found a copy of The Wind In The Willows which had been one of her favourite 책 as a child but sadly her copy had been burnt to cinders. She looked around for somewhere to sit and saw a window 좌석 of red velvet and she curled up there and began to read.
She read for hours her eyes flying down each beautifully illustrated page. When she had finished she was torn between her curiosity about the rest of the house and her longing to remain in the 도서관, 라이브러리 and read until her eyes fell out.
Then she remembered. Her bag! She flew along the corridor back to the nursery and grabbed a rucksack that contained all she owned in the world. Running back to the 도서관, 라이브러리 she emptied it out onto a nearby table.
An assortment of seemingly worthless objects tumbled out. The most valuable looking thing there was a gold teardrop shaped brooch. It contained a picture of her mother and father and also one of her twin sister who had died along with them. Ember stared at them for a moment then snapped it shut and pinned it to her top.
The other objects were just things she had picked up throughout her life but they were just as important. A peacock’s feather, a green glass marble, an aquamarine gem, a single red rose pressed in an envelope, a diary of her mother’s she had managed to salvage from the house but she had never found the key, a shining silver stone that had been given to her 의해 her father, and a drawing 의해 her sister of the two of them together. Her sister had been a great artist before-
A tear fell down her cheek as Ember gazed at all these worthless treasures. Then touching the brooch for good luck she proceeded to fill the bag back up with 책 after placing her treasures back in the front pocket.
She put The Wind in the Willows in her bag as well as The Wizard of Oz, Heidi, Black Beauty, The Railway Children, Alice In Wonderland, The Adventures Of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures Of 허클베리 Finn.
The bag should have been overflowing at this point but strangely it still seemed almost empty and she managed to fit in a huge book of the entire works of the brothers Grimm.
Ember loved fairy tales even though she was now thirteen and the ones 의해 the Brothers Grimm were her favourite.
She shouldered the rucksack and it felt light as a feather much to her surprise. She would have stayed and filled the bag some 더 많이 but her curiosity sent her feet across the room and right out the door.

but now its over
and i am not going back
had my 심장 broken
had my dreams blown away
it only took 당신 a second
to rearrange my whole day
I use to know you
but now its over
and i see that now
당신 blew me away
far from here
and i couldnt make it back
but i bet 당신 knew that
I use to know
someone like you
he was friendly
but i left him behind
in the rain
in the cold
where i couldnt see him
i hope you're different
it would help
if 당신 werent exactly like him
nice to know you
but i must go
and protect my soul
how nice of 당신 to stop by
but please go 집 now
I use to know you
but now im long gone
and it feels great'
to leave that burden behind
i wont see 당신 again
i wont be there when 당신 fall
just know that i
wont pick 당신 up again
Thursday
Kyle is the worst boyfriend ever! The party ended with me in a coma. Apparently there was alcohol in my drink. I had an overdose and it almost killed me. Kyle swears he didn't do it. I want to believe him. I really want to. I know Kyle had done it because I know saw him poor something in there. At first I thought it was water 또는 something to make it sweeter. It wasn't water. I couldn't go to school today because they were pumping the alcohol out of my system 또는 something. I'm not entirely sure what happened. All I know is that for a couple if 분 I was pronounced dead. My heartbeat soon started thumping again but I was in a coma. My parents were so worried. I thought for sure they would be dead from shock. Kyle is banned from coming near me. My dad implied that rule. My mom kept crying whenever she talked to me. All she could manage to get out of her mouth besides whimpers were muffled words. I don't think I'll be seeing Kyle for a while now.
