There seemed to be no call for me to leave, and I was not going to miss the fun of watching Sarah’s bright red bottom on display if I could help it. After about twenty minutes, when Sarah’s tears had subsided, her mother told her to go to her room. But as she reached out […]
Sarahs Mother, Scene 1
“I’m sorry, Peter, Sarah can’t come out today. She has been very naughty and I have sent her to her bedroom.” “Oh,” I said, disappointed.
