Her sarcastic remark was merely meant to counter The Cheshire Cat’s, but she couldn’t help but feel intense nostalgia of what could have been all those years ago had her decisions been different. Cheshire smiles smugly, “well, my dear. I hear The Hatter was just about ready to throw one of his infamous tea parties, and I really must suggest we get there before all the good seats are obtained.

After a little conversation with the Caterpillar, she easily felt irritated with his comments “Who are you?” ”Keep your temper”.
