The very idea of it was absurd. No one had ever done such a thing before. It was a terrifying thing to be doing. What would happen if the dream didnt work No one, least of all the Queen, would believe a word of her story. It seemed possible that nobody had ever woken up to find a small sitting behind the curtains on his or her windowsill. The Queen was bound to get a shock. Who wouldnt With all the patience of a small who has something important to wait for, Sophie sat motionless on the windowsill. How much longer she wondered. What time do Queens wake up Faint stirrings and distant sounds came to her from deep inside the belly of the Palace. Then, all at once, beyond the curtains, she heard the voice of the sleeper in the bedroom. It was a slightly blurred sleeptalkers voice. Oh no it cried out. No Dont â€“ Someone stop them â€“ Dont let them do it â€“ I cant bear it â€“ Oh please stop them â€“ Its horrible â€“ Oh, its ghastly â€“ No No Noâ€¦ She is having the dream, Sophie told herself. It must be really horrid. I feel so sorry for her. But it has to be done. After that, there were a few moans. Then there was a long silence. Sophie waited. She looked over her shoulder. She was terrified that she would see the man with the dog down in the garden staring up at her. But the garden was deserted. A pale summer mist hung over it like smoke. It was an enormous garden, very beautiful, with a large funnyshaped lake at the far end. There was an island in the lake and there were ducks swimming on the water. Inside the room, beyond the curtains, Sophie suddenly heard what was obviously a knock on the door. She heard the doorknob being turned. She heard someone entering the room. Good morning, Your Majesty, a woman was saying. It was the voice of an oldish person. There was a pause and then a slight rattle of china and silver. Will you have your tray on the bed, maam, or on the table Oh Mary Something awful has just happened This was a voice Sophie had heard many times on radio and television, especially on Christmas Day. It was a very wellknown voice. Whatever is it, maam Ive just had the most frightful dream It was a nightmare It was awful Oh, I am sorry, maam. But dont be distressed. Youre awake now and it will go away. It was only a dream, maam. Do you know what I dreamed, Mary I dreamed that s and s were being snatched out of their beds at boardingschool and were being eaten by the most ghastly giants The giants were putting their arms in through the dormitory windows and plucking the out with their fingers One lot from a s school and another from a s school It was all soâ€¦ so vivid, Mary it was so real There was a silence. Sophie waited. She was quivering with excitement. But why the silence Why didnt the other one, the maid, why didnt she say something What on earths the matter, Mary the famous voice was saying. There was another silence. Mary Youve gone as white as a sheet Are you feeling ill There was suddenly a crash and a clatter of crockery which could only have meant that the tray the maid was carrying had fallen out of her hands. Mary the famous voice was saying rather sharply. I think youd better sit down at once You look as though youre going to faint You really mustnt take it so hard just because Ive had an awful dream. Thatâ€¦ thatâ€¦ that isnt the reason, maam. The maids voice was quivering terribly. Then for heavens sake what is the reason Im very sorry about the tray, maam.
