hi guys ! i'm a young writer who would love to be an author! i hope u like this !... This book is based in the victorian times! CHAPTER THREE: "Here," Mother passed me a beautiful dark burgundy dress, which pulled in at the bodice and flowed lightly out. "It's perfect for you and is great for the morning, and it will look beautiful on you! Try it on please, Charlotte!" I nodded and walked toward the dressing room. Inside stood a washing basin, a bathtub, plenty of mirrors and my mother's expensive makeup. I shut the door gently and pulled the silky fabric onto my skin, instantly feeling comfortable. I then saw a small corset lay neatly on the stool and sighed, taking the dress back off and pulling the corset over my upper body, groaning silently. I hated corsets. "Mother?" I asked. "Yes, darling?" "Please help with my corset, I shan't ever be able to do it myself ! " I heard my mother mumble something and then heard her footsteps. She opened the door slowly and walked over to me. "Breathe in!" I took a deep breath in and my mother pulled tightly on the strings. I groaned and gasped. "Breathe in!" Mother pulled even tighter and I felt my waist being pushed in once again. She pulled it again, this time finally finished. "I'll leave you to get dressed now," I then pulled the silk fabric back onto my body and checked my reflection, instantly feeling surprised. I looked pretty. I walked weirdly out of the dressing room, my corset feeling awkward against my body. "Oh my gosh, Charlotte!" Elizabeth gasped and pulled me to her gently. I nodded at her and looked at Mother. "You look beautiful, Charlotte." "Thank you, Mother! Oh hello, Thomas!" I smiled back. "Charlotte! I just finished reading with the governess!" "That's marvellous!" I smiled at him and turned to my mother. "Wear that for your class then change into this please, Charlotte," She showed a more fabulous dress which was more like a ball gown, "Oh, and wear the corset!" She gave me a stern look, "Go to etiquette now please, Charlotte." I nodded and walked to the school room, where the governess smiled at me. "Good evening Charlotte! I hope you are ready for etiquette! Elizabeth wasn't so well at this so I hope you are!" I smiled at her thankfully and sat down at the table to learn about manners and politeness, I wish I could go back to the station again.
