Her eyes passed from his somewhat quickly considering how striking he was. Vych’s attention, for the moment, had been captured by Sabrina.Vych’s previous anger dissolves into a strange feeling of compassion for the child upon Sabrina’s greeting. The little girl’s voice is so sweet, her dimples simply irresistible. Then she hears the last words Sabrina said echo in her head, “when I’m all grown up.” With that, Vych feels something pull at her dead heart and slowly stretches out her arms to hold the little girl’s hands out to the sides in a sort of “ring-around-the-rosey” fashion. Then, she kneels to the child’s level bringing both their hands up just below chin level. With a gentle smile gracing her entire face Vych says,“how very sweet you are to say that Miss Sabrina. I think you are very pretty too my dear.”Vych touches the child’s cheek lightly with one hand as she rises. Vych continues to hold Sabrina’s hand until the little girl releases. Vych tries to hide the slight wave of sadness in her eyes as she looks at Nathaniel and says,”Mr. Montague, your family is lovely.”</blockquote>
