There is one lonely child there still
Scrooge recognized every field,
Hair extensions post,and tree,as they walked along the road towards a little market town.All around thgm were young schoolboys on horses and in farmers’carts,laughing and wishing each other a merry Christmas,as they travelled to their homes for the Christmas holiday.
‘They are only shadows from the past,’said the spirit.‘They cannot see us.’
Scrooge knew and named all of them.Why was he so delighted to see them?Why did his cold heart beat faster when they went past,shouting‘Merry Christmas!’?What was‘merry Christmas’to Scrooge?What good had it ever done to him?
‘Not everyone has left the school,’said the ghost.‘There is one lonely child there still,one child whose friends have all gone.’
‘I know!’said Scrooge.And now he
Hair extensions was crying openly.
