Aghast of an Erudite Lady

 

1878, 21st December

My Mère had been quite distressful after my words... As for punishment she locked in my chambers, although I only spoken my truth, I saw beyond their mien, it was translucent as the morning dew. My brother, Totó, saw it too,they are only driven by scruples intensions... It does not matter, thought restless my spirit is restless, the phantasmagoric visions of Totó's pale cadaverous aghast every night. How I dread his end before I could say one last adieus...

I quiver last night, cloister in my own chambers, with an occassional silent visit of the maid. At 8 o'clock, I heard the lock turning, I dread that my Mère have seal me with one of her spells, since I never listen to the sound of the rusty keys whenever the servants enter or leave my room... Perphaps, even more than one spell, the silence is aggraveting, if it was not for my tutor, I assure you I would have no clue if a fourthnight had gone by, I could count the cycles changing, although time proceeds in mysterious ways when one is despotism in their closure...

However, a propitous discovery may put an end to my aghast, one of the paintings in my room seeing my trembling spirit inquired me what did I fear. I confess to them my dreadful dreams and they were kind enough to tell me a clandestian passage in my chambers that was built by my Père ancestor, a precaution in case mayhem stroke our doorsteps. I refrain from quaff desires and only use this secret to visit my dear brother, he seem well, yet I cannot shacken this mortifying feelings that his end is approaching, I swear I saw a raven's silhouette above his headboard...
