The thought of going to the park made her feel ill. It was a perfect day, the sun shining, the birds singing, but it didn't improve her mood. It was the same day as Alice’s picnic.

She felt a sharp pang of envy, and then the bitterness took over. The thought of shared blankets and laughter in the sunshine didn't please her. She wanted to be left alone. She scowled.

She changed her plans. She turned the key in the lock and went back into her house. The silence was the only thing she wanted.
