Marys PoV
Immediately after Aunt Julie wrote to me that my little cousin was not doing particularly well, I immediately had my things packed and took the next evening plane to England.
No sooner have I arrived at the airport than I follow the crowd out into the luggage room.
When I see my purple suitcase, I grab it and walk to the great hall.There I slowly let my gaze wander over the people.
finally I rediscover my aunt's bright, blond curls.
A big grin settles on my lips as she struggles through the crowd, searching.
,, Hello Aunt Juliiiie! I'm over here. ", I try to draw her attention to me and hurry towards the older woman.Only when she turns around do her bright blue eyes see me.
"Oh Mary, nice that you could come!", She greets me with a smile and then pulls me tightly into her arms.
I pat her back a little awkwardly."How could I leave Mili alone in such a mess? ", I counter with a crooked grin and cleverly free myself from Aunt Julie's hug.
"Yes, that's how I know you. Self-sacrificing and assertive as always. your clients are lucky to have you as their lawyer. ", I hear Julie say before she takes my suitcase from me with a wink and precedes me without a chance to answer.So I quickly catch up with her so as not to lose her completely in the chaos of people.
Fortunately for me, we leave the hall a few minutes later.The gentle wind tickles my cheeks, so that I enjoy breathing in the air.
,, Mary come! Our taxi isn't waiting. ", Aunt Julie's voice rushes to me frantically.
I quickly shake my head to be in the here and now again.
While Aunt Julie is stowing my luggage in the trunk, I get into the taxi.
"Where do you want to go?" Penetrates the driver's dark voice.
"Oh yes, right. Chrm. Wait ... I just have to take a quick look is a rather complicated name. You know? "I stutter to myself with a bright red. Oh God, how embarrassing.
Mili goes to a girls' school that should be somewhere in the mountains.
What is the name of the place?
"We have to go to Cackle road." Mili's mother comes to my aid and takes a seat next to me, smiling.
,, Okay! Please buckle up! It could get a little ... bumpy. "
