This choice: Another strange girl comes waltzing in. • Go Back...Chapter #5Julie by: Unknown "Well, good morning, Nora." A new voice said as it entered the room. Nora turned to look, and smiled as she saw who was walking in.
Julie Sutherlend was, like her, a very changed woman. But while Nora's pumpkin form was well known in the house as being the result of a curse, why Julie turned out as she did seemed to be a mystery. Only Julie herself knew what happened, and she didn't want to talk about it.

"Oh, trust me, I'm well aware of that." Nora said. "So, any jobs for me?"
"Actually, it doesn't look like it. You can probably take the day off." Julie said.
That intrigued Nora. She usually didn't have the chance to take a day off. While it was tempting to just laze around in her room, Nora felt that she needed to at least try to keep herself occupied.
