That girl. Her essence enticing, her beauty sublime. I want her, no I crave her. I watch as she wants away from me, she looks back... My first instinct is to hide. I hide behind a tree and just as I take a pretty at her she's already a mile away. Her essence fading. She moves toward a white and gold estate. The house appears to be unusually familiar.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mikhail, you see that house over there," my dad asked.
"Yeah the really big one papa?"
"Yes, that house belongs to a dear friend of mine Garrison Larosé, he's an explorer and a thief."
"A thief, papa, why are we going to the house of a thief when we should be out looking for mama," I almost started to cry.
"Because he knows where your mother is..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This house belongs to the man who knew my mother. Deep down I want to straight up to the front door and demand Mr. Larosé to tell me where my mother is, but a strong part of me thinks it would be wise if I ease my way into the house, get to know the people who live there and then try to figure out gradually what happened to her.
I gather strength from the souls of nearby animals and make my way to the Larosé's estate.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The house is empty when I arrive. Damn it! How am I supposed to know what happened to my mom if there's no one here to ask. I walked around the perimeter of the estate until I feel a familiar spark in the atmosphere. Just around the corner is that girl from earlier. She's standing there alone looking absolutely beautiful her aura is spectacular to look at to be filled with her essence would be equivalent to being filled with the peaceful warmth of the sun. I'm stuck in place, as if I move or make a sound then, like a doe, she would flee from me, so I just stand there in the shadows admiring her.
"Yo, nerd how long are you gonna stand there school ain't gonna wait for you to escape your daydreams and neither am I so get your ass in the car." A tenor voice shouts at my muse causing every part of my body to push towards beating the shit out of him, but I constrained myself.
"My name is Autumn asshole and I'm coming. Don't see why you're acting like this considering I'm the only one who can drive your ungrateful self to school."
Autumn. What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl. She gets into her Mustang GT and the boy follows in pursuit. They leave the driveway and I watched them go...huh? Maybe it was just my imagination but I thought for a second that she looked at me.
