"Oh, Marilla, you look positively elegant! Where are you going?" asked Anne.
"One must look their best when traveling. I'm visiting my sister in the states, she is awfully sick and I'll be gone for a month." said Marilla in a prim and proper manner.
"Oh. Why didn't you tell me, then I could have packed earlier! Gosh, I need to pack now!" she cried as she ran up the stairs.
"Anne, I'm afraid you're not.. going." said Marilla.
Anne stopped. "I'm not? Then...then where will I stay?You don't believe that I can stay here alone for a month, especially with the haunted woods next to us, but obviously theres the white way of delight, and the Lake of shimmering waters, but still." said Anne. "Will I be staying at Mrs. Barry's?" she asked eagerly.

"No, I've made arrangements with Mr. Blythe, you're to stay with them, in the farm. said marilla.
"But...but Gil..gil bert bly..the, but...." Anne stuttered. "No buts, Anne Shirley, I've arranged it and you will go there."
"But Marilla! When are you going?"
"Right now, after I take you to the Blythe's farm. And I expect you to be well behaved."

"Oh, Marilla, I'm in the depths of dispair, I shall never be almost perfectly happy in the Blythe Farm."

"I will not listen to such nonsense, now come along, I'm already late!"

Anne packed her 'wordly goods' and went downstairs.

"Come along, Anne."

They went for a ride through the White Way of Delight and pass the Lake of Shimmering Waters.

'Anne, knock on the door and tell them. I need to get going." and She left without another word.

Anne knocked on the door and there stood a man that looked a lot like Gilbert but with sharper angles and his eyes were not a mischevious.

"Hello, Mr.Blythe! My name is Anne Shirley! Anne spelt with an E. Marilla said that I was to stay with you while she was in the states, am I correct?"
