Everyone has to look perfect in front of the council members.

Hello!  My name is Judy. I live in this orphanage.

Today, the council members who sponsor our orphanage will visit us.

We are very busy cleaning and tidying the girls.

The council members just left  but the Principal is calling me to her office.

What did I do wrong? One of them is still here.

I have to go I suppose, and face the scary sponsor.

He got interested in your essay about Melancholy Wednesdays especially because today is Wednesday.

I find this essay ridiculous and embarrassing for the orphanage

but he liked it and proposed to give you a full college scholarship.

Just because of this piece of preposterous writing!

That tall ugly man thinks that I can become a writer

and gave me a college scholarship and living expenses coverage. Unbelievable!!!

All I have to do is to write him a thank you letter once a month.

This is the girl's dormitory. I am writing the first letter to my benefactor.

I do not know anything about him.  His name is John Smith, which cannot be real.

All I know is that he is very tall.   I've decided to call him Daddy Longlegs.

Judy...  I wanted to see where Sally was going

Sally and Julia are my new college friends.  Sally is very laid back and friendly.

Julia is a little stuck up but it is not her fault.  She is from a rich New York family.

Are you writing a letter to your family? In a way...

I did not want my new friends to know that I grew up in an orphanage.

I told him that I had the flu and he sent me a little cheer-up present.

I did not even think that he read my letters.

I was so excited that I sent him another letter right away.

Nice to meet you. I am Julia's uncle and have come to see the college.

Would you please show my uncle around the building?

I gave Mr. Jervis a tour around the campus

It seems that he enjoyed the tour as he kept smiling.

I felt very easy with him,  like I've known him my whole life.

We had a heated discussion on Gothic literature over our afternoon tea.

Look, Judy has been selected for the short story contest!

How exciting!  / I am happy for you, Judy.

By the way. my uncle wants to  invite both of you to New York.

Yes, he said he would book a hotel room for you.

He also bought tickets for the new production of Hamlet.

I've never been to New York and  I've never been to a real theatrical play before.

The world is a happy place!  I should write to Daddy Longlegs all about it.

We are in New York!  What can be more thrilling!

I finally saw my first play.  I cried through the whole last act.

Mr. Jervis was very kind and understanding.

I will never be able to thank you enough!

I enjoyed our time together and wish you a safe trip.

We will go to our vacation house, ride a canoe,

you will meet Jimmy's friends!  We will have the best time!

Jimmy is Sally's brother.  He is a very nice young man.

I met him before when I visited Sally's family for the first time.

I wrote Daddy Longlegs that I am going to visit Sally's family again.

I am staying at a farm belonging to a friend of Daddy Longlegs.

I received a letter from his secretary telling me to reject Sally's invitation and come to the farm instead.

I tried to ask for permission again, but it didn't work.

Sally has written to tell me what an exciting time she is having at her vacation home,

You should open your letter quickly! / Oh, Mr. Jervis?

He told me that he spent his childhood on this farm!

I am so happy to see him and talk to him again.

We made our way down from the mountains and headed for the farm.

He caught my wrist just in time, and didn't let me fall.

We went riding through the forest together,

and then laid out a picnic in the shade of an old oak tree.

Mr. Jervis and I had a wonderful time together, but I had to come back to college.

Today is the college's anniversary, and there will be a dance to celebrate.

It will be my first ball! I invited Jimmy.

I am sorry I only danced with you twice, there were so many people...

It's more exciting to dance with several different partners, isn't it?

Would you like to visit my house next time, and camp out?

But first...will you go with me to the University dance next spring?
