About a week later, I finished work early one day and came back to house. My mother was working in her small room, next to Mr Ross's office. Mrs Duncan was in the kitchen. Greta Ross was painting in her room upstairs.
I went to my room and began reading a book. I was sitting beside the window. After half an hour, I got tired of reading. I looked out at the rain, and the grey sea and rocks between the trees.
I got up and went out of my room. I worked along the passage and turned a corner.Then I saw the door at the end of the passage. There was a large plant in a plant pot outside the door.
I worked along to the door and turned the handle. The door didn't move. It was locked.
