It started as a happy dream. She dreamed that she was
walking in a museum. She could hear some of her friends talking, but
she couldn't see them. She could see a painting. It looked like a
painting of a little girl standing in a park on a bright sunny
day. Suddenly an English woman was standing
next to Melody. The woman was carrying an umbrella and wearing a
dress just like the ones that people wore a hundred years ago. She
didn't say a word, but just stood in front of the painting, staring at it for a very long time. Melody wanted
to walk closer to her, to talk to her... but as Melody came closer
the woman turned around. The woman's face was so sad --
..and then Melody saw that the woman was in the painting with the
little girl, and an umbrella was lying on the floor of the museum...
Melody didn't know what she should do...
