I Keep Them On The Floor Beside My Bed

Where Are You Mama?

Love reading your comments. Thank you for reading.❤️

"How can we open the door?" little Ingrid wondered. "We use the key..." Elsa giggled and climbed on a chair to reach the doorhandle. The key fit perfectly and the door opened. The three girls looked at each other before finally entering the mysterious room. The room was dark and there were no windows in the room. Ingrid and Saga quickly hugged Elsa's legs. They were still scared of the dark and wanted to escape, but suddenly the door closed and locked. They were stuck in the dark!

Lights flashed and suddenly they could see again. The room was built in metal and there were different gadgets all around the room. Suddenly a hologram of their mama appeared practically out of nowhere. "Mama!" little Saga exclaimed, throwing herself at the hologram, only to fall right trough it. Luckily, she fell on some cushions, and it didn't hurt one bit. The hologram mama chuckled. "Sit on the chairs, darlings," she smiled. They all listened and sat on the chairs behind the table.

"Where are you mama?" Ingrid asked, while littler Saga just cuddled up with Elsa. She was scared and missed their mama so much already! "If you're here now alone... it means that I can't be there at the moment. It's very complicated, but all that you need to know for now it's that you have to go to the rest of the family," their mama started the explanation.

"I worked for the Swedish royal family as the head of their security before you my little angels were born... nobody knew of course... it's very important that it stays a secret...ok?" The girls nodded. "Only your papa knows..." their mama continued. "Papa?" asked little Saga. She wanted to have a papa too... al her friends had them. "Yes... and he loves you very much," their mama reassured the little ones. "Why isn't he with us though?" aske Elsa. She didn't remember her papa, but she did have some memories of a man, living with them before Saga was born...

"Because I know too much important information due to what I worked all those years ago, people want to know that too and try to get information from me... I can't tell them though..." it was hard explaining this to her little kids. "Papa couldn't stay with us... I couldn't let him get hurt because of me..." she finished sadly. It was hard to admit that she pushed their papa out of their lives, simply because he'd be a bigger target... She loved him and she still loves him of course... hopefully they can all figure it out somehow...

"What's papa's name?" asked little Ingrid. "Your papa's name is Christian. Write it down Elsa... you'll need to find him before you find me, baby girl. Peter Christian Ulvaeus. Do you have it?" their mama asked. Elsa nodded and now wanted to know some more. If their papa's surname was Ulvaeus and their mama's surname was... she didn't even remember... "What's your full name mama? We only know you as mama or Lotta..." Elsa said quietly. She should know this by now... Their mama chuckled. "My name is Ann Lise-Lotte Lyngstad."

Little Ingrid gasped. "Why isn't your surname the same as papa's?" she was confused. In preschool everyone had the surname of their parents... "Well... we never married... so we each kept our own surnames..." Lotta tried to explain... she too wished they had the same surname... "But what about us? What are our names?" Elsa asked, making her mama chuckle. "Your names Are Elsa Maja, Ingrid Anni-Frid and Saga Agnetha. And you three have my surname... for now..." Lotta answered. She hopped on day this would change... "But in school it doesn't say Lyngstad..." Elsa countered. "Is it because it would be too dangerous?" she asked. Hologram Lotta smiled. Her little girl was so smart... all of them were... "Yes. Exactly... that's why you go by Berg..." Lotta answered her eldest daughter. Elsa smiled and was happy with the answer.

"I need you to go and find your grandmother... your farmor... she lives all the way up in Sweden. Her address is in the little box on top of the piano..." Lotta said and Ingrid quickly got the box before running back to the table. The girls looked in the box and nodded. There's also a gold card in there..." Lotta said. The girls nodded again. "This gold card will allow you three on every train up to Sweden... all the trains you need to take are written on the last paper... try to get to your farmor, ok?" Lotta asked. The girls nodded. "But where are YOU mama...?" Elsa asked. "I don't know..." the hologram of their mama answered honestly. "I had to prepare this years ago... I don't know what's happened..." Elsa nodded at her mama. She understood and she'll make sure they arrive to their farmor safely. "Good luck my girls..." said Lotta and the hologram disappeared, and the girls had to take few moments to gather themselves. It was strange to see their mama like this...

Suddenly, three suitcases and three backpacks appeared and inside, there was everything the girls could need. They prepared some breakfast and after they were ready, they left their house. They wore their warmest clothes and winter boots... Swedish winters weren't exactly mild...They locked the door and took their little bicycles. Slowly making their way down to the local railway station just as the dawn was breaking.
