Lizzie Alice remembers. She spent a good portion of her time trading secrets with Alice when Alice was young. Of course, Alice was 11 years younger than her. Lizzie kept that secret from her family, until it boiled over and she caved and told their father what had happened before their deaths. Bottling it up was a solution for Lizzie, because Alice was too young to understand Bumby's disgusting advances.
All of this has conjured up a lot of old feelings for Alice, ones she wasn't really ready to deal with again. Alice sucks in a breath thinking she can hold back tears. Sister. Lumina doesn't know, it's not fair to burden her with those things. But there's little Alice can do when she bursts into tears, covering her face so that Sophie doesn't get caught in the crossfire. Besides, who takes children away from their older sisters, anyway? That's cruel. ]
