Answer: Mary and Colin are cousins. They are very similar in character, as well as life. They are both powerful, rich, they both died mothers and they were both brought up by servants. They were both the only child in the family. They behaved with the servants as if they were a prince and princess. There was not a drop of respect for the servants in them and they didn’t even say a word please either thank you. Their similarity contributed to the beginning of their friendship. They both kept secret the Mysterious Garden, the entrance to which was forbidden. The garden belonged to Colin's mother and after his death his father forbade the entrance to it. His father hated him because the boy looked like his mother and was a living reminder of her death. In the beginning the author states, that she is : "the most disagreeable-looking child ever seen", but she transforms and we are told that : ¨Mary had not had time to pay much attention to her changing face and in the end we can see that she is :"like a blush rose" . Her friendship with Colin and desire to help her cousin transforms her like a person and we notice the inside and outside transformation
