Souls Entwined Through Time

Both sisters could not stop dreaming about the story. They were sharing the same dream but were in different people. The layout was familiar, but the outlook was drastically different.

One was more alone than the other.

While Dixie was hypnotized by the plight of the female lead, Bonnie gravitated towards the big brother.

Dixie's heart and soul bled as she saw everything through Felicia's eyes. Watching her mother die, the unfair accusation, her father's cold eyes, being discarded, the blatant disrespect from low level servants, the whispers, the gossip, being made the black sheep of the Del Montague family, the arrival of her evil step-mother and step-sister, the manipulations, the brainwashing, the slander, the schemes, being locked up, starving, crying, so much crying, the admonishments, the slaps, being bullied everywhere she went, the unfair judgements and ultimately execution by fire for a crime she never committed.

Poor girl. Poor, poor girl. How could people be so cruel? So blind? Accusing the one suffering of causing suffering?!

And that step-sister Helena was nothing short of a monster! A nightmare that descended upon Felicia!

Bonnie in some ways had a far more unpleasant experience. She was made to feel all of brother Alexander's emotions and rationalizations. She had to watch the way this man avoided his own blood sister as if she were a disease. He hated her so much! He aided in the destruction of her life simply because he favored his adoptive sister. He was convinced Helena was an innocent and sweet soul who could do no wrong. His mind was warped by the manipulative and honey-poisoned tongues of his step-mother and her devil spawn. He always believed them. He didn't even try to understand his sister's side.

He was convinced Felicia had killed their mother whom she loved so much!

He was a complete idiot and total bully in sore need of some punches! 

When the dream finally ended, she let out an audible cry of relief. Eyes snapping open, she panted hard as sweat poured down her. She turned to her side and saw that Dixie was also awake and drenched in sweat.

Before either one could speak they were distracted by a sudden sound coming from the kitchen.
