pleased of the company.” Silvie wondered who there might be for Sabrina. “There are a few single menner you might like.”
“ Ach , I can’t wait for tomorrow to see for myself.”
“ Mamm sent you to spy on me?”
“She sent me to make sure that you don’t make a mistake. She was worried when she heard about the Englischer .” Sabrina sat down heavily on the other side of the bed. “Who is he, the Englischer ?”
“No one important. Just someone who might become Amish soon, that’s all, but I’m a grown woman and can make my own choices; I wish mamm would realize that. Apparently, I’m not far enough away from her.” Silvie wondered who it was who reported back to her mudder .
“Silvie, that’s a terrible thing to say. Mamm would be so upset to hear you say a thing like that about her.”
Silvie laughed. “You only just said that you needed to get away too.”
“I didn’t say it was because of mamm . I mind what I say.” Sabrina pouted.
“Okay, then I’ll mind what I say as well. You get settled, unpack your clothes and you can help me with the chores.”
“Chores? I’m a guest. I don’t want to do any chores; I have to do chores at home.”
Silvie shook a finger at Sabrina. “If you stay here, you’ll be doing chores.”
Sabrina pouted once more. “If I’d known that, I would not have come.”
Silvie turned and walked toward the bedroom door. “If you want to stay with me, you have to do chores. I’ll give you fifteen minutes to unpack.” Silvie walked out of the bedroom pleased with herself. If her mudder had sent Sabrina to spy on her, she had to turn things to her advantage in the best way that she could.
As Silvie finished washing the dishes, she looked out the window and remembered her prayer of just days ago. She shared with Gott that she did not want to be alone. Was this Gott’s answer, to send her Sabrina? She meant she wanted a mann in her life, not her spoiled schweschder to come and stay with her. She would have to be more specific with her prayers in the future.

For as the body without the spirit/breath is dead,
so faith without works is dead also.

Emma drove herself to the Sunday meeting rather than go with Maureen or Wil. Sometimes she liked to be alone driving to the gathering together and back home.
Walking toward the group, she saw Silvie and was sure that the woman next to her had to be Silvie’s schweschder. She had the same fine features and the same delicate coloring with the blonde hair and the blue eyes.
Silvie looked up, caught her eye and walked over to her with her arm looped through her schweschder’s . “Emma, this is Sabrina, my schweschder .”
“Hello, Sabrina.” Up close the girl was even more beautiful than Silvie.
“Nice to meet you, Emma.”
Emma noticed that Sabrina was hardly paying her any attention as her eyes darted to and fro over the crowd. It was clear to Emma that Sabrina was single and looking for a husband. Most young girls of her age thought of little else. “I guess you’re from Ohio too, Sabrina?”
“ Jah , I don’t know how long I’m staying yet, maybe just a week or so.”
Sabrina and Silvie sat with Maureen and Emma during the service.
When the meal was being served afterward, Silvie pulled Emma aside. “ Mamm sent her to spy on me because she heard that I was sweet on an Englischer .”
“Really? I guessed that she was looking for a husband.”
“ Jah , that too.”
Emma laughed, and they both turned to look at Sabrina only to see her approach Wil. “ Ach , look she’s gone over to Wil. Emma, you have to stop her.”
Emma scoffed. “I’m not concerned. Wil had plenty of time to find someone else besides me; he’s never been interested in anyone else.”
Silvie frowned. “You’re very confident, Emma.”
Emma was not confident at all, not after the argument they had. “We’ve talked of marriage.”
“You haven’t said ‘yes’ though, have you?”
