My twisted fantasy life

chapter three

When I woke up this morning, I hopped in the shower, got dressed in some gardening clothes i chose a pair of faded and worn blue jeans with a light grey tank top that crosses in the back, then headed down for breakfast.

"Good morning dear, how was the party last night? What's your plan for the day." my grandma said once i sat down at the kitchen island while she finished cooking breakfast. Now I know you're probably thinking a few things by now, so let me clear them up for you today. The reason my grandma does the cooking is because she enjoys it and I do help some and when she lets me I even cook. Since I learned over the years how to make different dishes from both her and experimenting on my own.

"Good morning, grandma. Well I planned on helping you in your garden. If you need or even want my help, that is?" I say while grabbing some tea and juice to go with breakfast, I planned on trying to avoid thinking about that party and what happened for as long as possible, but knew that wasn't going to work for long.

"You're always wanted to help your dear old grandma anytime you want to. I think we can do some work in the garden this morning then have a late lunch. What do you think?" Grandma said, turning to grab two plates from the cupboard with glasses for our juice, since I had just finished serving out the tea.

"I know, but I always want to ask, since I know how much time and energy you put into that garden. I think that is a great idea, we can go once we finish breakfast." I reply once we have our plates and drinks in front of us. Breakfast went by quickly then grandma and I went outside to her garden.

Once outside I tell Cleo to go have some fun but to be careful, which she always is. I walk over to grandma who is already messing around in her garden oblivious to me standing next to her. I swear she is the one that I learned to focus so completely that you don't notice the world around you, as you may have noticed already it's a favorite of mine.

"What do you need me to do grandma?" I finally ask as I grab a pair of gloves to put in my back pocket, until I need to use them.

"You can help me take out all the weeds then I have some things that I need to get planted that you can dig holes for." she tells me as i start on the other end of where she is.

We continued doing what was needed in the garden until we stopped for lunch. By the time we stopped the sun was high and it was starting to get a bit too hot. So we went inside and washed up a bit for lunch, we settled on a chicken salad sandwich wrap with water. As we were sitting and eating, Cleo flew through the door to her perch.

"So honey, are you ever going to answer my question earlier about what happened at the party?" she asked me and i nearly choked on my water, i was worried that she had somehow found out what happened at the party and how she was going to react to it knowing the history with the five.

I coughed and cleared my throat and said "Nothing happened, I had a fun time dancing with hazel but started to feel closed in so I came home early." My voice came out a bit shaky and I couldn't look at her while I told her that. I planned on telling her I found my mates after I figured out how I feel about it.

She gave me a look that said "I know there's more to it than that, but I'm not going to push yet." and grabbed our plates while I grabbed the cups. "So what do you want to do for the rest of the day then?" She asked me as we left the kitchen to go to our rooms.
