Past LifeA Story by Kat LochMy name is Katherine. I lived in England in the 1800s. My family was the rich sort, and we lived nicely. I was the oldest, with a younger sister. I was tall and average sized when I wasn’t wearing the corset. I had wavy, dark brown hair to the middle of my back. My eyes were a rich, dark blue. I was pale. My nose was long and straight, my mouth was thin and a light pink. All my senses were perfect. I was raised strict, and perfectly. I, still, find short dresses and shorts ridiculous. Legs must be hidden. Bare feet are comfortable, but un-ladylike. I lived on the second floor of our large house, passed the grand staircase. There were a lot of rooms in that house of mine. We hosted a few balls in our ball-room before. One of them had a significant meaning to me, which has yet to be unraveled. The town I was living in was, either, London or York. One of those towns, I had memorized perfectly. I would take walks in the town park. I remember, rather clearly, an outfit I use to wear. It was a light blue dress, slim at the top and it ruffled out passed my knees. The sleeves went down to my hands. The neck came up MY neck half-way. Over this lovely dress, I wore a dark blue jacket, with sleeves only to my elbows. With the outfit above, my hair was braided into a high ponytail, but a lot of it was left to dangle down my back. It was an intricate design. My life was perfect. Pure perfection. Until it was cut short in my early to mid-twenties. © 2011 Kat LochAuthor's Note
