You were finally back in your hometown. You moved away with your parents 8 years ago to live with your grandma. She was very weak and you had to care for her the last years. When she died only you and your parents lived here. Two moths ago your parents also died in an accident so you decided to go back to where you were born. You were now 17 years old, looking just like your father except for your nose, that is your mothers. You were on your way to your old cottage, which was still yours cause your parents didn't sale it.
You were looking at the ground and walking when you bumped into someone suddenly. "Oh I'm sorry, did I hurt you?" The girl just started laughing. You looked at her a bit confused. She was maybe one or two years younger than you and somehow familiar to you. Then it hit you. "Enola? Enola Holmes?" She looked up to you. "Wait how do you know my- Y/n?" You nod "The Y/n L/n?" I smiled. "Oh my- How I've missed you!" Enola jumped into your arms. "Me too. How are you? How is your mother?" "Oh we are fine and what about you? Why are you here?" "Oh that's a long story" "Oaky what about you coming with me....and then tell me your story?" You couldn't even answer, she grabbed one of your suitcases and walked to her cottage.
It was still the same lovely house with the garden you loved so much when you were younger. You went in and looked around, everything looked just like all the years before. "Y/n?" You turn around and see her standing in the door frame. "Mrs. Holmes how lovely to see you again." She gives you a hug, one of the warm hugs she always gave you when you were a child. "You can call me Eudoria forgot?" "Right sorry." "Y/n you wanna have tea?" "Sure." You go into the living room and sit down on the sofa, drinking your tea and telling the story.
"So as you know my grandmother was sick and we moved there to care for her for about 4 years and then she died. But we stayed there in her house, two months ago my parents died then...in an accident. But I don't wanna talk about this now."
"No Dear it's fine" Eudoria says and gives you a welcoming smile. "If it's no problem mother and if it's okay for you Y/n...you can stay here with us for a while although your cottage isn't far away." "Well for me it isn't a problem." "Yeah I'd like to stay but I don't want to bother you." "Oh please you don't bother us. Come on I'll show you your room." Eudoria takes your suitcases and goes upstairs. "I could have taken my suitcases by myself you don't need to take them for me." "No, no I can take them. It's fine." She stops in the middle of the hallway in front of a brown door.
She opened it and and puts your suitcases down on the floor. It was a very beautiful room. White and light green wall, a big window, a very comfortable looking bed and an beautiful old closet.
"It's so lovely here." she smiles. "I'm glad you are back. Enola really missed you. You were her best friend but you've changed." You look at her confused. "No, not like that but you've got a beautiful, very beautiful girl. And you are still as clever as before." Maybe you were just a bit emotional or else but you had tears in your eyes. A grown woman, a perfect, clever woman like her gives you compliments. "I'm sorry, did I say something wrong?" "No, it's just...ah I don't know. I'm just really emotional."
She takes you in her arms and you rest your head on her shoulder. When you pulled away there was this one special moment when your eyes locked, your faces only inches apart from each other. You looked at her lips for a moment but immediately back in her eyes. Her big, brown, beautiful eyes. "I- i need to go. I call you when Dinner's ready." You nod and she goes out....
I'll make a part two of this :)
