The lucky garden

1. THE MOVE

Athena and her mother have just inherited her Grandmothers Fortune, as long with a garden that she owns, in a small town named Cotten Grove.

Athena knew some stuff about, her grandmas garden. After all that's all she would talk about.
When Athena was little her grandma would have tea and talk about the Garden.

She would say "The Garden was like my second home, but I knew I could never live there". I never really understood what she meant when she said she could never live there.
Looking back I remember saying " Well of course you can't live there Grandma, it's just flowers and trees" I remember saying.

"No child that's where your wrong" she said " The Garden had waterfalls, beautiful fawns, the greenest grass in the WHOLE world, even more than I can name" she said.
"But if you were so happy there then why did you move?" I remember asking but when I asked Grandma was already walking away, she looked back at me and said " Remember my little dove, No matter how many times the Sun sets, it will always rise" she said in a soothing manner.

Years later Me and my mom moved to the Cotten Grove where we were greeted with the old smell of cheese and burn metal.
When I would have tea with my Grandma she always said that Cotten Grove was a the best places ever. "THIS IS THE WORST PLACE EVER!" I said in disgust.
"Know know Honey, it may smell different than what we're used to, but let's be respectful." She said, that like every thing was normal.
I could tell that she did not approve of the smell, and I don't blame her! But then again, this was my Grandmas wish before she passed.

"Come her my little Dove theres no need to cry" I remember her saying. " but Grandma you can't go I thought we were going to go back to the Garden together"! I said with tears in my eyes.
I remember Her smile clear as day "I'm Sorry my little Dove, I lived my life and I want you to live yours. my only wish is for you to go to the Garden but don't worry, we still will be together". She said as she handed me a Locket that had a Dove on it. " Goodbye my little dove I will see you very soon..."

I was awoken by a Dove, that was looking at me through my window.
The I heard my mom calling my name " Athena dinner is ready!" She yelled "coming mother!" I said.

After dinner I decided to take a warm bubble bath, but when I got to my room I saw the same Dove that was on my windshield earlier. " Aren't you just beautiful" I said while lightly picking it up from the windshield.

Before I knew it the Dove pulling on my bow tie. It was like it was trying to lead me somewhere.
I decided to follow it. We ended up at a riverbank that the water was so clear it looked like a mirror.

And that's when I saw the gorgeous golden gates, beautiful fawns, waterfalls, and the greenest grass I HAVE EVER SEEN, and SO much more!

"I finely got to see it with you my little Dove..."
