“What is that, Ally?” her dad asked, looking up while shaking a crease out of his newspaper.
“It’s my diary,” the strawberry-headed six-year-old replied.
Her dad looked puzzled. “Where did you get it?”
“The white-haired lady gave it to me.”
“What white-haired lady?” The little girl didn’t notice the faint lines of worry that crept across her father’s forehead, worry about strange people giving his daughter strange gifts.
“The white-haired lady that lives in our walls.”
