Chapter 1- 4

In chapter one, Matilda awoke with a mosquito buzzing in her ear and the drowned out sound of her mother calling her from downstairs.  She also found a dead rat. In chapter two, Matilda’s mother noticed that their young servant girl Polly was missing.  Everyone started assuming things about where she could be, not knowing the devastating truth. In the third chapter, the news had come, Polly was dead.  Everyone mourned all day. In the fourth chapter, Matilda does the work in the coffee shop  that was left behind by Polly.  While she was working she could hear the predictions the gentlemen made of Polly's death.
