Cath's new house is smaller than she imagined. It's also old.
The beige paint looked faded and is need for a repaint. The carpet looked like it belonged in the 80s and it sinked. She wondered if Cath brought the Febreeze.
(She also wondered if she brought the "Tropical Breeze" one. She never liked the one her father would use. It would always smell odd. "It's lavender. You'll get used to it." He'd always say.)
Cath smiled, "Alright. We'll make do with what we have. Al, could you help me with the suitcases? We'll leave the boxes for last."
So, the sisters took their time to take everything into the house. Their parents said that they'd bring the rest of Alessandra's furniture in about a week so she had no bed.
"Why don't you sleep on the couch?" Her sister offered, pointing at the old, beat up couch that had been sitting their since they moved in.
Alessandra rapidly shakes her head, "Ew. No way I'm sleeping on that old thing. Who knows where that thing's been."
Cath rolls her eyes and searches in one of the boxes for something. After a while of searching, she finds two sleeping bags.
"Well, I guess we'll be sleeping on the floor until the couch I ordered arrives."
Alessandra smiles and takes a sleeping bag, "You are a genius Cath."
"Yeah yeah. I'm so smart. Now brush your teeth and go to bed."
"Aye aye ma'am!" Alessandra does a mini salute before going straight into the bathroom.
A few seconds later, she comes back out.
"Ummm... Where did you put my toothbrush? And the toothpaste?
********
"Come on Al! Mama's calling us!"
"Coming!" She calls out to the smaller girl who looks very similar but she can't put her finger on it.
The two girls giggle and run through the crowd, hand and hand.
As they're running, she feels the hand slip, "Y-Your hand is slipping."
Suddenly, she doesn't feel the warmth of the hand anymore. She stops running and starts looking around for the familiar head of brown hair.
"Hello? Don't play games with me now."
No response. Not even the pedestrians are paying attention to the lost girl.
"L-Lila? Lila, where are you?" She begins to scream.
"Lila!"
Alessandra wakes up with tears streaming down her face, her blue-green eyes most likely puffy and red.
That dream. That same dream keeps coming back to her. It's the only piece she has of her past and yet, she wants to get rid of the memory.
She hears Cath stir beside her, "Al?"
She wipes her tears, "Y-Yeah?"
Cath sigh and starts to sit up, "You had that dream again, didn't you?"
She nods and her sister pulls her into a hug. She melts into the hug and starts to cry.
"Al listen to me." Cath forces her to look at her, "It's just a memory. You're brain is just remembering your past."
"B-But I don't want to r-remember."
Cath's heart breaks hearing Alessandra's voice crack just saying she doesn't want anything to do with her past. But Cath knows it's apart of her and it'll come back sooner or later.
"You remember that time when I snuck you out to go dye your hair and change your eye colour because you said that you wanted t-"
'To look like you. Yeah, I remember." She says, smiling at the memory.
"Yeah. But do you also remember that it was a huge fail."
She giggles, "Yeah. But at least a few things changed."
"Well this is similar to that. As much as you want to forget or 'dye' your past, it'll away be apart of you. Just like how your original hair colour is alway there even though you can't see it." Cath says softly, trying to make her sister understand, "Your brain is just showing you your past Al."
She looked up at her sister, confused, "Now, why would it want to do that?"
Cath smiles, "It wants you to learn from your mistakes. The past just helps you learn and improve and grow."
"O-Okay."
Cath smiles and hums a tune that their mother used to sing to her when she was child.
Alessandra slowly starts drift off to sleep, the soft tune comforting her.
So far, this new life isn't going so well. Hopefully that'll all change soon.
____________________________________A/N: HAI! I IS BACK AND WITH AN UPDATE! YAY!
But, unfortunately, updates will be very slow now that I have to go with the episode list and stuff. (Also, I don't know what episode to start with so.... That might take a while.)
ALSO, for people that might be reading this when season two is out (or when y'all are like, "Well, that's not what I heard about season two!" and all that annoying crap....):
I wrote this BEFORE season two was happening and all the information was out and stuff. (Yes this book MIGHT go into season two.)
Somethings will be based on my imagination, other things will be based on the show and (possibly) other things.
So don't complain.
Hope you like the chapter! (I'm actually really proud of it!) Don't be shy! Comment, vote and/or comment!
And BE PATIENT! Okay?
Byeeee!
