Well, This story became so much interesting than I thought!! Really the events are so exciting that make you not bored while reading... During these 9 chapters many events happened I'll try my best to spot the lights with the most important events :D
Here are some famous woutes about hope:
- The circimstances in London became so much dangerous than before that Hilda wanted to move away and take Ellen with her.The idea of moving revealed to us that Hilda is so selfish and she doesn't think except about herself;however' we can consider her reactions somehow normal due to the shocking events that came after each other such as her husband's death, the war, Gertie's strange treatments, and finally the loss of her child.
- Hilda was very shocked when she knew that her husband died during the war!!But a very strange woman came and said that Doug is still alive; maybe Hilda didn't believe alot but this gavr her the spark of hope!! This is a very important theme of the story (Hope never dies) this theme will be revealed more and more as we read more chapters..
- Since the circumstances in London were very dangerous Hilda really wanted to move to a safer place.Gertie came to visit Hilda to make sure that they are fine;therefore, Gertie saved Hilda and Ellen by offering them a free-rent cottage in a safer place.
- Mabel followed Hilda to the free-rent cottage.Billy is a young boy who always talked about horses and nothing more.According to Ellen Billy was just a normal boy and Billy didn't care except about horses.
- Billy worked at the stables and was very satisfied because he did what he loved.
- Ellen was confused from what the strange lady said about her father she didn't know whether to believe or not.
- Suddenly we were all surprised by Doug's appearance and finnaly recognized that what the woman was totally correct.
- Doug's return returned the smile and hope to the whole family and even us the readers.
- Ellen knew that what the lady said was totally true so she went to her and heard more strange things.She said to Ellen to pay attention on the signs. Ellen didn't understand and Sheila told her not to care.
- Doug returned in a bad condition..his back really hurted him which made him unable to perform some normal life activities such as work....
- Mabel got a letter from her husband who also got injured during the war so she nedded to go back urgently before he returns. She was worried but Doug pacified her by telling that if he wasn't fine he won't be able to send a letter....
- Ellen started to realize her feelings toward Billy but she knew that Billy cared only about horses and feared the fact that he may have a crush on Sheila.
- When Billy knew that he should leave urgently he got very mad and annoyed because he didn't want to leave but he had to. at that moment ellen realized that she loves Billy alot. Hilda recognized that but convinced herself that Ellen is still small.
- When Billy returned back Ellen was dying to see him and regreted the moment when she thought of not sseing him again.
- The war ended and everyone returned back to london. Billy wasn't satisfied at all and wanted to move back again to town in order to work again in the stables but his parents didn't agree because he was young.
- Ellen was so concerned to know whether Billy has a crush on Sheila or no. She wanted to make sure that they don't talk again because she dreams seeing herself between Billy's hands.
- Though Ellen was very excited to return to london in order to see Billy, she rarely saw him because he was always busy with the horses.
- Doug cared so much about the relationship between Hilda and him as a normal husband and wife so he didn't want to tell her about his back pain but she knew.
