Question

After having two more glasses of cordial, Diana turned pale suddenly.

“I’m sick,” she said, “I must go home.” And she left Green Gables and ran all the way home.

On Monday, Anne went to see if Diana was better. She soon ran back home with tears rolling down cheeks.

“What has happened, Anne?” asked Matila.

“Mrs. Barry says that I sent Diana home drunk on Saturday. She says she’s never going to let Diana play with me again!”

Marilla went to the cupboard and then came back to the kitchen with a bottle of wine, trying not to smile.

“Anne, you gave Diana wine instead of raspberry cordial. Didn’t you know the difference?”

“I never tasted it,” said Anne. “But Mrs. Barry will never believe me. And now I’ll never be able to play with Diana again!”

The following Monday, Anne surprised Marilla by coming down from her room with her books. “I’m going back to school,” she said. “That is all there is left in life for me, now that my friend is gone.”

Marilla tried not to show how happy she was to hear this. “You’d better work hard,” she said.

Anne did work hard, and soon she was top of the class with Gilbert Blythe, whom she still found very annoying.

One evening, Anne was at home doing her homework. Matthew was home, but Marilla had gone to town with the Barrys and Mrs. Lynde. Suddenly, Anne looked up and saw Diana standing at the door. She looked very worried.

“What is the matter, Diana?” cried Anne.

Oh, Anne, do come quick,” said Diana nervously. “Minnie May is very sick. Father and Mother are away in town and there’s nobody to go for the doctor.”

Matthew quietly got his cap and coat and went for the doctor.
