So...Anna and Mathilda happen to be sitting in Anna's living room at the beginning of the chapter. Mathilda is drawing a tattoo on Anna's arm while Anna picks at a splinter in her pinkie. While drawing the tattoo, Mathilda reminisces about when Helene was still alive. Helene used to draw tattoos on Mathilda all the time. After creating her work of art on Anna's arm she decides to meander about Anna's house. Anna doest mind she just sits there gazing at the T.V as if it was a miracle. While prancing about Mathilda's mind once again wanders elsewhere. She thinks about Helene's cellphone, how it rang two weeks after her death. None of the family members went to pick it up, they jsut wat there listening while eating dinner. The next day Mathilda's mom had the Cell phone disconnected
Chapter 9
In this chapter Mathilda comes across a old letter addressed to Helene from a boy named Louis. Helene had some odd ways of hiding her letters and printed out emails. She hid them in a stuffed bear. Mathilda was shocked that nobody was able to find them, even the police couldn't track them down. Mathilda decided to hide the letters in the basement.She Describes the basement as being no mans land since Helene died. Her mother and father seemed to refuse to go down there.
This story is pretty depressing. I definitely do not think Helene's death was a accident. I hope the letters Mathilda keeps finding have some sort of clue. I don't know though. This story is kind of unpredictable...but I'm enjoying it.
