The secret garden — Chapter One The child who was left behind
"Don"t think that you"ll see your uncle. You won"t. He doesn"t want to see you," said Mrs.Medlock. "There aren"t any other children at the house, either. You"ll have to play and take care of yourself. I will show you what rooms you can enter. There are many rooms you must stay away from. There are gardens outside for you to play in. But when you"re in the house, you cannot wander around. This is very important. Mr.Craven won"t allow it."
"I don"t want to see his horrible house," said sour little Mary. She stared out the window. She didn"t feel sorry for Mr.Craven anymore. He probably deserved all the bad things that happened to him.
She turned towards the window and stared at the rain. She stared at it for so long that she fell asleep.
