Little Fox Anne of Green Gables, Chapter 13.

Anne in Trouble Again Marilla walked home one late April evening and realized happily that winter was over.

She looked affectionately at Green Gables and looked forward to a warm fire and a cup of tea with Anne.

When she got home, the fire wasn't lit,

and there was no sign of Anne anywhere.

Marilla was disappointed and irritated.

By the time Marilla got dinner ready,

it was dark, and Anne had still not come home.

Marilla went upstairs and found Anne lying on the bed,

face down among the pillows.

My goodness, said the astonished Marilla.

Have you been asleep, Anne?

No, was the muffled reply.

Are you sick then? asked Marilla anxiously.

Marilla moved closer to the bed.

No, but please, Marilla, go away and don't look at me.

I'll never be able to go anywhere again.

Anne Shirley, what's the matter? said Marilla.

Anne turned over.

Look at my hair, Marilla, she whispered.

Marilla lifted her candle and looked closely.

Anne's hair certainly looked very strange.

Anne, what have you done?

Why, your hair is green.

And it was green.

Never in all her life had Marilla seen anything so ugly as Anne's hair at that moment.

Yes, it's green, moaned Anne.

I thought nothing could be as bad as red hair.

But now I know it's ten times worse to have green hair.

Anne, Marilla said, I've been expecting something to happen because you haven't done anything strange for two months.

How did your hair turn green?

I dyed it.

Dyed it?

You dyed your hair?

Marilla looked at Anne sternly.

Well, continued Marilla sarcastically.

I would have dyed it a decent color at least.

I wouldn't have dyed it green.

He said it would turn my hair a beautiful raven black.

protested Anne.

Who said that?

The peddler that was here this afternoon.

I bought the dye from him.

Anne Shirley, this is what your vanity has done.

Now give your hair a good wash, Marilla said.

Anne washed her hair, but it made no difference.

Oh, Marilla, what can I do?

People have forgotten my other mistakes.

Shouting at Mrs. Lynde, making Diana drunk,

jumping on Miss Barry and cracking a slate on Gilbert Blythe.

But they'll never forget this one.

For the next week, Anne went nowhere and washed her hair every day.

At the end of the week,

Marilla said firmly, It's no use, Anne.

Your hair must be cut off.

Anne nodded and wept.

Marilla's haircut was very thorough,

and the result was not pretty.

Anne's hair was quite short and it made a sensation in school on Monday

but to her relief nobody guessed the real reason behind her

haircut however Josie Pye did tell Anne she looked like a

scarecrow a few weeks later the girls were standing at the brook.

In the brook was a small boat.

It was Anne's idea that they act out a poem.

You must be the lily maid, Anne, said Diana.

I'm not brave enough to float down the river.

But it's ridiculous to have a red-headed lily maid, said Anne.

Your hair is much darker since you cut it, said Diana earnestly.

really exclaimed

and flushing with delight then she went back to deciding the

parts for their skit I'll be the lily maid she agreed reluctantly Ruby you be King Arthur

and Diana must be Lance a lot

and lay down in the boat closed her eyes

and folded her hands on her chest she really looks dead

whispered Ruby Gillis instead of lilies Diana placed a posy of violets in Anne's hands.

Now she's ready, said Ruby.

The girls kissed the lily maid and pushed the boat off.

For a few minutes, as the boat slowly drifted,

Anne enjoyed the romance of her journey.

Then something very unromantic happened.

The boat began to leak.

The lily maid was forced to get up and look at the big crack through which water was pouring.

Anne gave a gasping little scream that nobody heard

and then she went pale but she stayed calm there was one chance just one

anne prayed that the boat would keep drifting toward the bridge and float near one of its columns

the columns were made of old tree trunks with branch stubs that she could sit on

anne's prayer was answered the boat drifted under the bridge and and scrambled onto a column

She sat there with no way of getting up or down.

The boat kept drifting and then sank.

Ruby and Diana waded farther down the brook,

and they saw the boat disappear underwater.

They went white as sheets, shrieked, and ran off.

For the unlucky Lily made,

the minutes ticked by, each one like an hour.

Why didn't someone come?

Where had her friends gone?

Suppose nobody came.

Just when Anne thought she could hold on no longer,

Gilbert Blythe rode toward her.

100

Anne, Shirley, how did you get there? he exclaimed.

101

He helped Anne into his boat.

102

She sat there furious and soaking wet.

103

What happened? asked Gilbert.

104

We were playing and I was the lily maid,

105

Anne said, not even looking at Gilbert.

106

I had to float to Camelot,

107

I mean, down the brook.

108

The boat leaked, and I had to get out.

109

Can you roll me to the bank? asked Anne.

110

Gilbert obliged.

111

I'm very grateful, said Anne haughtily.

112

Anne, he said quickly, I'm sorry I made fun of your hair.

113

It was only a joke.

114

Besides, it was so long ago.

115

Can't we be friends?

116

For a moment, Anne hesitated.

117

Her heart gave a strange, quick little beat.

118

But then the scene of two years ago flashed in her head like it had happened yesterday.

119

She hated Gilbert Blythe.

120

She would never forgive him.

121

No, she said coldly.

122

I will never be friends with you, Gilbert Blythe.

123

All right.

124

Gilbert went down to his boat, his cheeks red.

125

I'll never ask you to be friends again, Anne Shirley.

126

And I don't care either he rode away furiously as Anne walked home she held her head high

127

but she was conscious of an odd feeling regret

128

Anne of Green Gables, Chapter 14, The Queen's Class.

129

Marilla put her knitting on her lap.

130

Her eyes were tired again.

131

Anne was curled up on the rug in front of the fire.

132

Marilla looked at her with tenderness.

133

Anne had no idea of how much Marilla loved her.

134

Anne sometimes thought Marilla was hard to please and lacked understanding,

135

but she always stopped that thought and remembered what she owed to Marilla.

136

Anne, Marilla said abruptly.

137

Miss Stacy was here this afternoon.

138

Was she?

139

Why? asked Anne.

140

She came to talk about you, answered Marilla.

141

About me?

142

Anne looked rather scared.

143

Then she flushed and exclaimed,

144

Oh, I know what she said.

145

I meant to tell you,

146

Marilla, honestly I did, but I forgot.

147

Miss Stacy caught me reading Ben-Hur in school when I should have been studying Canadian history.

148

I was reading it at lunch and was at the chariot race when lunch ended.

149

I was dying to know what happened.

150

So I opened my history book and put Ben-Hur on my lap.

151

It looked like I was studying history.

152

I was so interested in it that I never noticed Miss Stacy looking down at me.

153

I was very ashamed, Marilla,

154

especially when I heard Josie Pie giggling.

155

Marilla listened with a frown.

156

Miss Stacy didn't mention that, Anne.

157

It's just your guilty conscience.

158

Miss Stacy wants to organize a class of students to study for the entrance exam of Queens College.

159

She asked Matthew and me if we would like you to join it.

160

Would you like to go to Queens College and become a teacher, Anne?

161

Oh, Marilla!

162

Anne got up from the rug.

163

I'd love to be a teacher, but isn't it expensive?

164

Don't worry about that, Marilla said.

165

Education is important for girls as much as boys.

166

Oh, thank you, Marilla.

167

I'll study as hard as I can,

168

though I warn you not to expect much in geometry, Anne said.

169

The Queen's class was organized.

170

Gilbert Blythe, Anne Shirley, Ruby Gillis,

171

Josie Pye, and Charlie Sloan joined.

172

Diana Berry did not, as her parents did not intend to send her to Queen's College.

173

It was the first time that Diana and Anne had been separated in anything.

174

When the Queen's class stayed after school for extra lessons,

175

Anne saw Diana leave slowly with the others.

176

A lump came into Anne's throat,

177

and she hid behind her Latin book to hide the tears in her eyes.

178

She would never let Gilbert Blythe or Josie Pye see those tears.

179

Anne enjoyed the Queen's class very much.

180

She chatted away to Marilla.

181

Jane and Ruby are studying to be teachers.

182

Ruby says she'll study for two years and then get married.

183

Jane says she'll never marry because you are paid for teaching,

184

but a husband won't pay you anything.

185

What is Gilbert Blythe going to be? asked Marilla.

186

I don't know what Gilbert's ambition is,

187

if he has one, said Anne scornfully.

188

Since the day Gilbert had rescued Anne from the bridge and she had not forgiven him,

189

Gilbert had steadily ignored Anne.

190

He talked and joked with the other girls and sometimes walked them home,

191

but he simply ignored Anne,

192

and Anne found that it was not pleasant to be ignored.

193

Mrs. Lind came to Green Gables one afternoon to find out why Marilla had not come to visit her.

194

Matthew had chest pains, Marilla explained.

195

And I thought I shouldn't leave him.

196

He's all right now, but he gets chest pains more often.

197

Sit down, Rachel.

198

Will you stay for tea?

199

Mrs. Lind and Marilla ate some biscuits Anne had made.

200

Mrs. Lind thought the biscuits were delicious.

201

Anne has turned out to be a real smart girl, admitted Mrs. Lynde.

202

She must be a great help.

203

She is, said Marilla.

204

And she's steady and reliable, too.

205

I was afraid she'd never stop her daydreaming, but she has.

206

I trust her with anything now, Mrs. Lynde continued.

207

Yes, she really improved these three years, especially in looks.

208

You could even say she's pretty.

209

Anne enjoyed her vacation thoroughly.

210

She and Diana spent most of the time outdoors, walking, rowing, and wandering.

211

When September came, she was ready to study.

212

The Queen's exam loomed.

213

Anne had a nightmare where she was staring at the pass list for the exam.

214

Gilbert's name was on top,

215

and her name was absent.

216

The school year passed quickly.

217

Soon June came, and the Queen's exams were held in Charlottetown.

218

Dearest Diana, wrote Anne in a letter back home to her friend.

219

Today we had the history and geometry exam.

220

Geometry was hard.

221

Josie Pye said the geometry was so easy a ten-year-old could have done it.

222

Oh, Diana, I wish you were here with me.

223

Anne returned to Avonlea and waited for the results to be published in the newspaper.

224

While she wanted to beat Gilbert Blythe,

225

she also wanted to do well for Matthew and Marilla, especially Matthew.

226

who said she would beat the whole island.

227

That would only happen in her wildest dreams.

228

But she hoped she would be among the top ten students.

229

Finally, Anne saw Diana racing to Green Gables with a newspaper in her hand.

230

Anne sprang to her feet.

231

The past list had been printed.

232

Anne's head whirled.

233

Anne, you've passed!

234

Diana cried.

235

Passed first!

236

You and Gilbert both!

237

You've tied!

238

Oh, I'm so proud!

239

Anne grabbed the paper.

240

Yes, she had passed.

241

There was her name at the very top of a list of 200.

242

That moment was worth living for.

243

Everyone from Avonlea had passed.

244

They hurried to tell Matthew and Marilla.

245

Oh, Matthew, exclaimed Anne.

246

I've passed and I'm first,

247

or one of the first.

248

I'm not vain, but I'm thankful.

249

Well, now, I've always said it,

250

said Matthew, gazing at the list happily.

251

I knew you could beat them all.

252

You've done pretty well, I must say,

253

Anne, said Marilla, trying to hide her extreme pride.

254

We're all proud of you.

255

you
