Henrietta: *Near tears* No Mama, no!!! *sobs while her father looks at her in pity. James kneels beside her and embraces her. She grabs onto his coat fiercely* No no no!
Mr. Fletcher: Henrietta, stop this! I want you to be happy. Do not punish yourself for the pitfalls of your past. You shall dance and be happy. Please, Henrietta! Think of Miss Clarissa and how disappointed she will be.
Henrietta: *recovering slightly* No, Father, no! I mustn't! I will die! My heart would See More break, especially if Etienne and the company are there! No no no!
James: *stroking his sister's hair* Don't do this to yourself, Henrietta, please!
Henrietta: *Recovering.* All is well, James. I am contented! I shall return to my room at the shop and I shall finish my sewing. *shakily moves towards door and leaves silently*
Mr. Fletcher: *sighs and lights a pipe* I tell you, that mind of hers will kill her heart.

Mr. Fletcher: *ponders the story for a minute* Henrietta, come here, please. *She rises and takes her father's hands* Henrietta, my beautiful girl, you spoke of those terrible things with such excitement. You boldly rushed to Miss Raven's aid without knowing her. And yet you speak of how you do not possess enough courage to go to a ball! And how you forsook the ballet because your courage left you! And yet you danced with for fire and spirit than Essler herself. You must stop See More deceiving yourself, Henrietta! You must see the strength you have within you!
Mrs. Fletcher: Hamish, ça suffit, I will take it from here. Henrietta, come to me si'l vous plait. *Henrietta sits at her mother's knee, resting her head upon her mother's lap* Once upon a time, there was a sweet little mouse who lived in a palace. But she was afraid of the good royalty who lived there. The good royalty and subjects saw the goodness in the little mouse and they wanted to share their good fortune with her. They invited her out and tried coaxing her with treats and gifts, but the still was afraid. Many years passed and the little mouse had turned gray and gaunt, but still she was good and the royalty still hoped she would creep out from her lair, but no avail. The mouse finally passed away from a sad heart and starvation. And the royals mourned. Now, who does this sound like? Henrietta, do not fear the life your father and I gave you. Enjoy the unknown and the impossible... though I know you already do deep down. Go to the ball, ma petit souris. Dance, my daughter, and do not worry about courage or companies. Live with your heart and courage will find you.

James: Henrietta be reasonable! Do not make yourself into Cinderella. Come with me! Make merry, my precious girl! *Henrietta shrugs and looks down*
Mr. Fletcher: Tell me more of this... "occurrence", Henrietta. I'm intrigued.
Henrietta: Well, it went like this... *she continues to explain about Miss Clarissa and Raven* And then Mr. Grace, Caleb, and I were trying to stall Raven's aunt Harriet. All the while... *increases her vigor and excitement* And that is why today has See More been the most peculiar thing!

[Henrietta has just returned to her parents home so they might console her worried mind. She feels as if she is forgetting something, but doesn't remember. She sits in the parlor]
Henrietta: Oh, Papa, I have had the most exciting day! I thought I might wretch upon the cobblestones in front of nobles! *pulls handkerchief out of bustier and blots her neck and face*
Mr. Fletcher: My poor girl! What has you so vexed?
Henrietta: You wouldn't believe, Father! A girl was nearly kidnapped See More and imprisoned! And I witnessed it! *Pales while James brings her a cold cloth*
James: You're too weak, sister. I would have fought them off or called for help!
Mrs. Fletcher: James! Be good to your sister! Mon cherie, it is not all bad. You have a ball to attend soon! N'est ce pas?
Henrietta: Non, Mama! I can't! After all that I've been through! And to be gay and witty whilst flirting with my gloves and fan... it is not for me, Mama! *James embraces his sister and gives her a reassuring kiss on the cheek*

*Sweet little red headed girl skips into the shop* Henrietta: Oh, hello! *Curtsies and kneels down to her eye level* I do believe a princess has stumbled across my mistress's humble shop. How may I be of service?
Clarissa: *follows* Oh my God! Is that--- *sees her brother peaking from around a corner* It is. *picks up dress and runs towards him with Marie trailing behind*

Henrietta: Goodness! What's going on out there? *Sees a commotion happening across the street*

Clarissa: *staring shocked at Lydia* Ma'am? Do you have a guardian to look over your siblings?

BalletBear added a new chapter to The Enemy Says Good Morning
A New Life
Life with the officers takes some time for us to get adjusted. My father is becoming full of more and more spite and my mother more and more fretful. Abigail and Cornelia continue their little games and chores, but I am faced with the worst of it. I launder the officers' uniforms and their linens, while I continue my regular duties with the other guests. There are very few now that we have redcoats in our midst, but still the work does not cease. I work very hard all the while thinking of Sec...

Henrietta: I did not realize it was so late! My mistress at the shop shall be vexed if I'm out much longer. Thank you for your kindness. I will ponder your proposal and if some wild turn of events should give me courage then I shall come. I'm so glad I met you. I value you very much, Miss Clarissa. *slips the tip from earlier under the plate and moves towards See More the door* There was never a lady more noble than you.

Clarissa: Do not say such things! The invite specifically said EVERY person in Wilksin should attend! You are part of Wilksin and so the hand has been extended to you too.
