You couldn’t help but think of a better world. A better world for girls where they aren’t told what are suited for them and what not. It was your mothers fault that you thought of such things. She and other ladies all over Avonlea held secret gatherings, speaking of ways to change the oh so typical man world. Your interest in it began when one of those gatherings were held at your mother’s house. Your father had gone away for business, making it the perfect time. You sat on the stairway, watching all the ladies enter. You recognized Diana’s mother, Tillie’s mother and even to your surprise Jane’s mother. You watched them enter and be welcomed by your mother. When your mother had led in the last lady, she turned towards you. – “Y/n be a dear and go play upstairs…” – your mother said, motioning to you to get up. It was then that your mother noticed your little sister of five, playing between the coats. – “Poppy!” – your mother called out, pulling her from behind the coats. – “Take your sister with you!” – You got handed your little sister as your mother sighed loud. – “Mother…” – you started but swallowed your words back in at your mother’s voice. – “It won’t take long. This is important for mommy.” – you nodded, taking Poppy’s hand. – “Come Poppy, we can play with your dolls.” – you said to her while getting up the stairs.
With a glimpse over your shoulder, you saw your mother head into the living room. Poppy and you were playing in her room as you weren’t paying much attention. Poppy called it out as she presented a doll before you. – “Poppy!” – you called out, moving the doll out of your face. – “I’m thirsty…” – she whined out as you sighed soft. – “You will have to wait… we can’t go downstairs yet…” – you spoke as Poppy stuck her tongue out to you. – “Thirsty!” – she called out again, making you sigh even louder. – “Thirsty!” – Poppy shouted for a third time, throwing her doll into the air. You watched as she got up, circling around you while chanting; - “Thirsty, thirsty!” – Closing your eyes for a moment, you had to hold back any senses of yelling at her. Poppy kept chanting it out as you started to get agitated. – “Alright!” – you blurted out, jumping up. – “I’ll go see what I can do.” – you shot Poppy a glare as she gave you the most innocent smile ever. – “Stay here!” – you ordered her, before shutting the door behind you. Just outside her door, you took a breather. You loved your sister, but she could be very persistent from time to time. With a deep inhale, you made your way quietly down the stairs. In the hallway, you could hear your mother’s voice and someone else’s. As quietly as you could, you moved closer to the door that stood open on a shriek.
“What future will we give our children?” – you heard Ruby’s mother call out as you stood at the door, hiding. Peeking inside, you saw them all sitting down in a circle. Surrounded by treats and books. – “We are as much equal as our husbands!” – You heard your mother speak as it startled you a bit. You kept standing at the door, eavesdropping as you were captive by their thoughts. Their talk of equal rights and a chance for girls to speak their minds without being told it is out of her place, made your heart fluster. Imagine a world where being a girl isn’t less valuable. Not only being there to provide for the men but more. You jumped up, hearing that they were getting up. Without thinking you hid between the coat rack, pushing several coats before you. A moment later, opened the door, leaving loud chatter into the hallway. You held your breath as some coats moved away. Luckily, your father and mother had many coats from themselves already hanging there. You so hoped your mother wouldn’t find you between the coats. With the closing of the door, you breathed again. You heard some footsteps, presumably your mothers. Then her loud voice, echoed through the hallway. – “You can come down my loved ones!” – she shouted loud up the stairs. Once the coast was clear, you moved your head from between two coats, peering into the hallway.
Hearing Poppy run upstairs made you jump out of your hiding place. You waited for her to stomp down the stairs with loud thuds. – “Thirsty!” – she reminded you, making you roll soft with your eyes. You extended your hand to her, leading her into the living room.
You sat down at your desk beside Tillie at school. Miss Stacy had just finished writing something down at the blackboard, turning towards you all. – “I’d like to know what some dreams are of you…” – she spoke, folding her hands gently together. – “Dreams? Like what we dream of at night?” – Moody asked her, raising his hand. Miss Stacy shook her head with a smile. – “I meant what are things you want in your life. What would you want more than anything in the world, it could be everything…” – Miss Stacy noticed the frowned expressions on her students, making her exhale soft. – “Let me give you an example…” – she started to walk around, holding her finger against her cheek. – “If I could do anything in the whole wide world… I would like to…” – she kept thinking as Tillie and you giggled as she walked past you. – “Join the circus?” – She exclaimed making everyone laugh loud. Miss Stacy laughed as well, seeing everyone laugh. – “Really?” – Moody said as Gilbert shook his head. Everyone laughed even louder at Moody’s comment as he didn’t get it. – “She made a joke!” – Gilbert told him as Moody sheepishly chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck. – “But you all understand where I was going with… so let’s give it a try.”
Miss Stacy looked at each sides, seeing that everyone avoided eye contact with her. Afraid to go first or be ridiculed by their dreams. – “Alright! I would like to make it clear that whatever your dream is, none of you are allowed to make fun of it!” – Miss Stacy’s words reassured some as Paul slowly got up from his seat. Everyone turned their heads towards Paul, seeing him nervously hold his head down. – “I…I…I…” – he started, fumbling his shirt nervously. Josie and Jane snickered loud as Miss Stacy shushed them. – “It’s alright Paul…” – Miss Stacy told him, glaring at the girls for laughing. – “I… I would like to become…” – he continued, swallowing soft. – “A policeman!” – he spoke, shooting his head up to look directly at Miss Stacy. – “And I’m sure you will!” – Miss Stacy encouraged him. Paul smiled goofy, looking around him as everyone clapped loud. Billy patted his mate on the back whilst Paul seated himself down again. Diana shot up, glancing nervously at Anne. – “I would like to do another play some time…” – Diana spoke, sitting down directly afterwards. – “I’ll speak to Miss Lynch about that… who knows what we can arrange.” – Diana smiled as Miss Stacy gave her a proud smile. Gilbert got up with a clearing of his throat. – “I want to become a doctor…” – he spoke, letting his eyes drift away towards you. You clapped loud for him, smiling him encouraging.
Ruby jumped up with a squeal. – “I want to get married someday!” – she squealed out, making Miss Stacy chuckle soft. – “I’m sure you will Ruby…” – Ruby then seated herself down again. Josie followed her movement with a sigh. – “I have no dreams because I have everything I want!” – as quickly as she stood, she sat down. Miss Stacy blinked confused, turning her attention to anyone to fill the sudden silence. You locked eyes with her as you bit your lip nervous. Miss Stacy motioned gently to you to get up and speak. With trembling knees, you pushed yourself up. – “I…I…” – you started but cleared your throat nervous. Looking around, you saw everyone’s curious eyes fixed on you. – “I… I … want to travel the world and…” – you started to silence your voice to a bare whisper, seeing everyone look at you. – “and… be as bold as Miss Stacy…” – you added, your cheeks turning red with a blush. – “Well I feel honoured Y/n!” – Miss Stacy said, smiling proud at you. Her soothing voice made you smile up to her. – “You want to become like her?” – Josie pitched in, getting up again. You turned back towards her with a big swallow. – “What is so wrong with that?” – you questioned, seeing Josie scoff. – “And travel the world? don’t be absurd!” – she laughed out.
Miss Stacy tilted her head a bit, keeping herself on the background. She wanted to see where this was going before interfering. – “It’s not absurd! It’s not because you are so small-minded that we all are!” – you spoke to her with a bit more confident. – “Small-minded?” – Josie repeated between clenched teeth. – “At least I know my place!” – she slammed her hand against the table, starling those around her. – “Your place?” – you rephrased with a question, wanting her to enlighten it more. – “A woman’s place is with her husband, by his side, where he is. Not being so reckless as to travel around!” – Josie spitted out. Miss Stacy folded gently her arms, curious to how you would respond to it. She noticed Gilbert shooting her glances to stop this before it get’s out of hand. She calmly held her hand up to him, telling him to wait things out. – “Women aren’t defined by their husbands!” – you shouted back at her. – “We can do as we please! There is more to the world then obeying men!” – Your fist started to tremble from rage as you had enough of this small-minded, brainless talk. – “Well talking like that won’t make anyone marry you!” – Josie mocked out with a witty smirk. It made all the girls gasp loud as Gilbert had enough of this. – “I’d marry her!” – you suddenly heard someone yell out from the other side. Glancing over to your side, you saw Gilbert standing up, his hand firm on the table. – “I’d marry her in a heartbeat!” – he confessed, making you gape with a blush at him.
Gilbert came walking over to you, taking your hand when he was near you. – “I would marry her and even encourage such thoughts as she is right…” – Gilbert gave your hand a little squeeze, giving you a shock to breathe again. Josie scoffed, folding her arms furious. – “So, shut up Josie!” – Gilbert spoke to her, making Josie gasp loud. Miss Stacy couldn’t help but snicker, seeing Josie being silenced. Josie sat grumpy down, knowing she was beat. Gilbert inhaled deep, turning more to you. – “You would?” – you whispered to him, curious if he was only helping you out or speaking the truth. – “More than anything, Y/n…” – he whispered back, entangling his fingers with yours. – “So, don’t go handing out your heart to anyone else…Y/n, I would very much like to marry you in a few years…” – Gilbert confessed, not caring if anyone could hear him. You gasped surprised as he brought your hands to his lips. – “I’ll wait for you…” – you replied, smiling lovingly at him.
