CHAPTER VIII. FLAXIE IN CHURCH.
A three‑year‑old girl named Kittyleen arrives at the home of nine‑year‑old Flaxie (Mary Gray) on a snowy afternoon, her tiny frame and bright eyes a stark contrast to the bustling household where a mother paints delicate china and the children are busy with embroidery and chores. The visit begins with playful mischief—Kittyleen’s attempts to ring a bell and her love of sweet treats—while Flawlessly balancing her own duties, Flaxie finds herself both caretaker and companion to the exuberant toddler.
As a storm traps the children inside, the day stretches into evening, giving the two girls time to share stories, comforts, and small acts of kindness. Through Kittyleen’s lively presence, Flaxie learns patience and the quiet joy of looking after another, hinting at the gentle growth that will shape her character as the house hums with warmth against the cold outside.
