~Y/n's POV~

I'm Y/n Holmes, the first born girl in the family. I have two older brother, Mycroft and Sherlock Holmes. I also have a younger sister, Enola Holmes. My mom said that, my dad is the one who gave me my name. She always remind me that he is really happy when I was born since he is wanting a girl even before Mycroft is born.

Sadly, he died when me and Enola are still young. I am a year older than Enola. My brother also left us soon after. We don't remember them that much, only their name and what they look like. Ever since, mother is the one who take care of us. All three of us do all sorts of activity. She thought us a lot of things, but she did not teach us about how to stitch seashells, or practice embroidery. We did rather differently. Reading, science, sports, all sorts of exercise, both physical and mental, she told us that, "We can do anything in Ferndall.", and be anyone.

But, in Enola's 16th birthday, we found out mother is missing. She left Ferndell Hall, our home during at some point during the night, and she never return. She left us with little, bars and gifts, that she instructed Mrs. Lane to give us every tea time. We still miss her, and still hoping she will come back.

I was reading a book since earlier morning. Enola, my sister, burst open the door of the library. I slightl flinch, but she doesn't seem to notice.

"Y/n, they are coming today." She said, excited.

"I know." I said, still focusing on the book I'm reading.

"Then get ready?" She said in a questiong manner.

"I have to finish reading this. I don't want to come." I said looking at her, apologising. She just nodded.

"I'll go alone then. Are you sure you're okay staying here?" She asure me.

"Yes, I'm sure. Mrs. Lane is here, I could just go to her for accompany." I said, giving a small smile as a assurance.

"I'm going then." She said.

"Be careful." I said, hugging her. She left me alone in the library. I sigh, I am still upset. Mother leaving us does affect me so much. I continue reading my book.

"Gentlemen, welcome home. It's been some time." Mrs. Lane said. I just smile at them, not knowing what to say. Mrs. Lane nudge me, signaling me to also greet them.

"Welcome back, b-brothers." I said stuttering a little. I was nervous.

"Y/n?" Sherlock said in an unsure manner.

"Yes?" I answer.

"Oh god, look at you." Mycroft said, judging.

"Why is anything wrong?" I ask, I raise one of my eyebrows, showing my confusion.

"Why are you dress like that?" He said looking up and down.

"Dress like what?" I ask still not understanding what he is trying to say.

"Where are your gloves and your hat?" He ask with such disappointed.
