The Track Of A Storm

La Guillotine

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." Life is not without its ironies, is it? Fancy how the book A Tale of Two Cities seems to becoming a reality before our eyes. The Isabel and I go to testify in front of Mrs. Bottorff. Hopefully that will go well. Our (Isabel's and mine) want to raise some hell with Mrs. Bottorff. This is not the first time that Mrs. Bottorff has accused somebody for cheating. This is not the first time that Isabel has been accused of cheating. I do not blame Isabel for this unfortunate turn of events. I just wish that it will all go away with a verdict in our favor. If it does not I fear what reprecussions will occur from both of our parents. It will not be pretty, whatever it is in which will happen. We must remember, through this course of events that the system prevails with fair justice for all. Isabel and I have the truth on our side and that will provide the victory for us. We have done nothing wrong and therefore deserve no punishment. If the system fails us, however, we will meet our fate with La Guillotine. We must remember though "It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest I go to than I have ever known."
