my sister caught me and her friend

King Edward the Forth of England lies in State as Queen Mary begins her reign. She come to the throne in her thirties and is considered old. Her one and only thought is to bring her Country back to Popish rule. Back to the Mass the Catholics love and to restore the Churches, Monastries and Convents to their former glory. England has been a Protestant Country through the reigns of two Kings and does not want Rome's dominance over them again. This is part one of Mary's story.
I can only speak from my own experience. This is all I know. Others may have experienced what I experienced in a different way, with different results, but this is what happened to me. My 7 year old sister died in an accident when I as 12 years old. My whole family was devastated. My mum and dad were so distraught that they just couldn't talk about what had happened or about my sister who died. They couldn't talk about the tragic loss that made a huge full stop in their lives to such an extent that in the following 15+ years my sister's name was mentioned less than a handful of times. My mum died last year, 30 years after my sister, and none of us have ever talked about what happened to my sister. It's still a taboo subject, buried away both in our minds and in our consciousness.
