Yes, ma'am," She nodded and looked into my direction and I don't know why? but she looks so excited.
" Aisling, I am going to inform your father that we reached safely." Aunt addressed me but I don't care all I care about is Caden and cassy. Aunt disappeared on the left side of the hallway. I wonder, where she goes?
Emily cleared his throat and I cranked my neck to see her.
" Hello, I am Emily and you must be Aisling." She asked me. " Umm, yeah but how do you know that?"
She couldn't control her excitement as she threw her arms around me and pulled me into a compressing hug.
" Oh, I am so excited to finally meet you, Aisling." She was breaking my rib cage with her arms so, I pushed her away from me a little bit and she realized it soon.
" I am sorry, I am little too excited to see you. And come with me I'll show you your room before ma'am come back and find us still here." she said and I looked down at my luggage and ask her," What about my luggage?"
" Don't worry about it, I'll inform Benny to bring your luggage to your room." She replied me with a huge smile and I thought, who is this Benny?
" Emily, who is this Benny?" I asked her out of curiosity. " Benny lived with us and he is a Delta." " How long you have been staying with aunt?"
We begin climbing the spiral staircase and she said, " Well, after my mother died my father married to Ma'am Fiona and since, then I am living with her."
" Oh, I am sorry to hear that but where is your father?" " He also died a few years back." " Oh, it must be hard for you, loosing your parents and living with a step mother."
" Not at all." she said and we reached on the 3rd floor and I wonder, How is this possible? she is looking so happy. She took a key out of her curly hair and she stopped infront of the white door and I looked around and found two rooms on the opposite side of the hallway.
" Who lives there? must be benny." I thought and Emily already unlocked the door.
" Aisling, this is your room." she stood next to the door. I step inside the room.
The room is about three lengths of my arm span, including the closet
The floor in the room is wooden, and it creaks when stepped on. However, It do have one white, plush carpet approximately in the middle of the floor. It is rather clean-looking, considering it is white.
To the left of the door is a leather chair, of which is of no particular use, besides hanging half-used clothes on it. Past that, center-left is a rectangular window overlooking our backyard garden and swimming pool. It is a pleasant view for a cold room.
Center-left and far-left is the queen-size bed, with white and grey covers, and white and other colors for the blanket. The blanket in particular has a floral design and is heavy. The pillow has a white case and nothing else to it. The frame of the bed is wooden and beige in color.
Above, to the right of the bed, is a narrow, elongated window, which allows one to view the sky and neighbor’s flat view.
The walls are all white, except the back room, which is covered with a blue, mosaic-patterned cloth. The curtains over the large window are also white and see-through, which almost defeat the purpose of having them. The ceiling is white.
It is one of the coldest rooms in our house, as the windows are quite old and thin, and lack insulation.
" Oh, so this is where I need to live but. not for long..." I thought.
" I was so excited to meet you finally and we have a lot to catch up but first you settled down and I'll show you around. And introduce you to everyone." she was really excited and I can see that on her face.
" Everyone?" I asked her confusily.
" Yeah, and if you need anything my room is next to you." she said and she looked on the leather chair and said, " Opsss, I've forgot about these. Sorry." she gathered all the old clothes from the chair, while smiling and told me to come downstairs at 8pm.
She left the room and shut the door and I felt quite strange because of her behavior. But I guess, she wasn't used to seeing guests in here or maybe she have lost it, anyone could living with aunt would lost their mind. she is not to blame for. My father and aunt are the same both has a controlling nature.
I moved to the window and its already been a few hours and I'm already missing Caden and Cassy. I know it seems like only yesterday that I could hug them, spend time with them and just be with them. I miss their voice, their hugs, telling me everything is going to be ok. I love them so much I miss them every day! they have always been there for me, a shoulder to cry on and a friend. I feel very lucky that they were there for me during a very difficult time in my life. They gave up a lot of their own dreams for me and I will love you always for that
