PART TWO - THE SCHOOLGIRL
CHAPTER FIVE
Mr. Brocklehurst's Visit
"Come up to my room, both of you," she said.
We went to her warm, comfortable room upstairs.
"Now tell me the truth, Jane," she said. "You have been [-----1-----], and you must have the chance to [-----2-----] yourself."
And so I told her the whole story of my lonely childhood with the Reed 1 family and of the terrible night in the red room.
"I know Dr 2. Lloyd, who saw you when you were ill," she said. "I'll write to him and see if he agrees with what you say. If he does, I shall tell everyone in the school you are not a liar 3. I believe you, Jane." And she kissed me. Then she turned to Helen.
"How are you tonight, Helen? Have you coughed a lot today?"
"Not very much, ma'am."
"And the pain in your chest 4?"
"It's a little better, I think."
Miss Temple examined helen carefully, and sighed a little. Then she gave us some tea and [-----3-----]. For a while I felt I was in heaven, eating and drinking in the warm, pretty room, with kind Miss Temple and Helen.
But when we reached our bedroom, Miss Scatcherd was checking the drawers.
"Burns!" she said. "Yours is far too untidy 5! Tomorrow, all day, you will wear a sign on your forehead saying UNTIDY!"
Helen said Miss Scatcherd was quite right, and wore the sign all the next day. But I was very angry, and at the end of the afternoon, I took it off her head and threw it in the fire.
A few days later, miss Temple received a letter from Dr. Lloyd. He wrote to her that what I had said was true, and she told the whole school that I was not a liar. Then I truly felt better. From then on I studied as hard as I could, and tried to make friends.
