Aunt penelope escorted me inside her cottage. I walked inside holding my crutches. "there you go sweetie" my aunt said. She made me sit on the couch and helped me raise my leg up to the coffee table, on the pillow. I switched on the tv with the remote. I remember when i used to come here everyday as a kid.

**FLASHBACK**

" aunt penelope!!!" i screamed.
Aunt penelope comes running out of her room and towards me.
" what happened ellie why were you screaming??" aunt penelope said.
" i got hurt on my knee!!" i said while sobbing.
" oh don't cry honey!" she said while wiping away my tears.
Aunt penelope cleans the wound with spirit then puts a clean bandage on my knee.

**END OF FLASHBACK**

Tears spilled over my face as i remembered my innocent chidhood memories. I heard the clang of pots from the kitchen and i instantly knew aunt penelope was making something for me. Since my aunt was young and cool she hated me calling her aunt.

Penelope came into the room holding a bowl of chicken soup. It smelt delicious. She set it down on the table. " drink up ellie!" she said. " thank you!" i remarked. " aunt penelope??" " can i ask you a question?" i asked curiously. " sure!!" she said. " may i please stay here??" i asked. " sure you can honey!" she said.
