"Nature is strong as life itself"

3|HER BROTHER, HER LOVER, HER PAST

The sun rises upon a new day. Her eyes flutter open as the joy of a fresh new day comes to her. Asherah wakes up after a wonderful night and the new day is certain to become a bright one. Sitting up on the bed, the girl stretches her body. Her eyes are quick to look towards the flowers and it is as if they invite her to a good day. Where she is certain that the day that is ahead of her will be just as wonderful and magical as the last one, and is that always what she thinks.

Asherah's nightgown falls down her feet as she stands from the bed and is met with the room's cool temperature where she shivers slightly. The summer weather is warm and hot during the day but as soon as the sun has begun to set, this cold begins to flow over the world. During the night it can become cold as winter. The girl does not mind at all. In fact she does enjoy how wonderful the world appears to be, and she finds it to be magnificent how all of it blooms together in a circle that never ends.

Removing her nightgown which is white yet slightly see-through and is a couple of years old as she has used it for a long time and the family uses what they have until they break or until they cannot be used any longer. Dressing herself into her dress, she looks at herself in the mirror. Her hair is all over the place as it usually is when she wakes up. She is not like her mother who barely has her hair in tangles when she wakes. Asherah's hair is always out of placee and tangled when she wakes up or just after a long day.

Brushing through the tangles, the girl is quick to prepare her hair into this long silk like smoothness. When she is prepared, she leaves the room to see that her parents are preparing the breakfast for the three of them. Smiling when she sees her parents laughing to themselves at something that they are discussing. "Morning" She says in a cheery voice. Both of them turn around to look at their daughter with smiles on their face. "Morning, my darling" Her father speaks to her as he greets her. She walks over to her mother who hugs her and then she hugs her father.

Sitting down, breakfast is soon to arrive and the three of them eat. "I shall be visiting Declan today" Asherah announces to the two of them and they give her some smiles. "Your brother, I have heard is growing anxious for his child. I knew that he would not be able to handle the responsibility" Her mother says in a joking matter. Her brother has been nervous about his child which is soon to arrive into the world. "Yes, however, he is not alone. And we will be there for him as well" She speaks to her mother.

"If I were to be frank, I always thought it would be you who married before your brother. We might say he is not the one that others handle easily" Her father says to her which makes her laugh. "Yes, Declan is odd most of the time. Yet, he will always be the one who has a heart of pure gold" She tells her parents. Believing it in her own heart that those are words that are the pure truth. Her brother has always been there for her growing up and now it is her time to be there for him.
