chanel watches “Did she hear

“Did she hear, North Wind?” said Diamond. “Did she know we were trying to help her — and will it help her?”
“She heard you,” answered North Wind. “She heard with her heart, though, and not with her ears. She will not forget, but she will never understand till ——”
“Till she gets to the back of the north wind,” said Diamond.
North Wind smiled. Then she turned so that he could look down at the place over which they were passing.
“Oh!” he cried out suddenly. “I know where we are now. This is my old home before we moved into the city. Do let me get down and go into the old garden, North Wind, and run into mother’s room, and into old Diamond’s stall. I wonder if the hole is at the back of my bed still — your window, you know. Oh,air jordans for sale, I should like to stay here all the rest of the night,retro jordans for sale! It won’t take you long to get home from here, will it, North Wind?”
“No,” she answered; “you shall stay as long as you like.”
“Oh, how jolly!” cried Diamond.
North Wind sailed over the house with him and set him down on the lawn at the back. Diamond ran about the lawn for a little while in the moonlight. He found part of it cut up into flower beds and the small summer house and great elm tree were gone. It was so changed! He didn’t like it and ran into the stable,retro jordans. There were no horses there at all. He ran upstairs but the rooms were all empty. The only thing left that he cared about was the hole in the wall where his little bed had stood. All besides was desolate. He turned and ran down the stairs again and out upon the lawn. There he threw himself down and began to cry. It was all so dreary and lost!
“I liked the place so much!” he thought to himself. “But now — there is nothing left to like. I suppose it is only the people in a place that make you like it and when they are gone there is nothing left to like. It’s as if it were dead! North Wind told me I might stop as long as I wanted to, but I have stopped too long already! Oh, North Wind!” he cried aloud turning his face up toward the sky.
The moon was under a cloud and all was looking dull and dismal. A star shot from the sky. It fell in the grass beside him. The moment it lighted, there stood North Wind!
“Oh!” cried Diamond joyfully. “Were you the shooting star?”
“Yes,” said North Wind.
“And did you hear me call?”
“Yes.”
“As high up as that?”
“Yes, I heard you quite well.”
“Take me home, North Wind. Take me home!”
“Have you had enough of your old home already?”
“Yes. It is not home here any more.”
“Why is that, do you think?” asked North Wind.
“Is it because its soul is gone? Yes, that must be it, is it not, North Wind?”
“Yes, Diamond, that is it. Its soul is gone,” said North Wind.
She lifted him into her arms to bear him away. How long they floated about he did not know. But presently all was changed. He was in his own room again. And there was North Wind in the doorway of the long narrow room that opened out of his room, and in which the night before he was dancing when he looked up to find his lifted hands clasped in hers and saw her lovely face smiling down upon him.
