Cosette ran to the river and then, with her heavy bucket (桶) of water, she began to walk home. The trees were so noisy tonight, whispering and laughing at her, and the little girl began to cry.
“Oh please, help me! Please!”
And suddenly, the bucket was gone. A great hand came down and took it from her. She looked up and saw a big man in an old yellow coat.
Sometimes we know, without words, when something good is happening. The little girl knew that now, and she was not frightened of the big man, not a bit.
The man spoke to her, “Child, this is a very heavy bucket. Shall I carry it for you?”
“Yes, Monsieur.”
“How old are you?”
“I'm eight years old, Monsieur.”
“Where is your mother?”
“I don't know,” said the child. “I haven't got a mother.”
“What's your name?”
“Cosette.”
The big man stopped. He put the bucket down and looked into Cosette's eyes.
“Why are you carrying a heavy bucket of water at this time of night? Who sent you?”
“Madame Thénardier.”
“I would like to talk to this Madame Thénardier. Shall we go and see her?”
“Yes, Monsieur.”
Cosette was not afraid of the tree noises now.
