CHAPTER 7 – ALONE WITH THE BABY

Molly liked caring for the baby, but she was frightened of Edward. He called her “little slave girl”, and laughed at her and tried to make her cry.

Every morning, Molly helped Eve wash the clothes and then she took Catherine to the garden. In the afternoon, she took the baby for walks in her pram, sang her to sleep, and folded the dry clothes.

Molly felt tired all the time, and she missed her mother and sister. She only saw them during the afternoon walks if she and Catherine visited the cabin.

During one of these visits, Molly heard some very bad news. Tom's mother, Ruth, was dead. She never recovered from losing her son,Tom. In the end, she died from a broken heart. At the end of February, Eve went to stay with Mrs Smith's sister for a few days to help her with her new baby. After Eve left, Mrs Smith gave Molly instructions.

“My house servant, Becca, is starting to care for Catherine this week instead of Eve,” she said. “But you'll be alone with her at night. You must sing to her when she cried.”

“Yes, Madam,” replied Molly.

Molly was nervous. “Maybe I won't hear the baby cry,” she thought.

The first day wasn't easy. Catherine missed Eve and cried all the time. Molly held her and sang to her, but it didn't help. Then, Becca spilled a bottle of milk, so Molly washed the rug and cleaned the floor. It was very hard work for the little girl.
