It was already morning when I woke up and I found myself inside the bathtub. I could not imagine sleeping with half of my body submerged under the water. I could have slipped and drowned.. but then again it was so surreal. I felt like I was inside the womb of my mom. I felt so calm and relaxed. For the first time since heaven knew when, I was smiling.
I decided to go that Fairy Shop say thank you for the psychedelic soap or whatever it is and to also introduce myself. I wondered if I could also give her something so I bought my favourite cake from my go-to coffee shop hoping she would like it.
When I was walking, I felt so light and fresh like a feather being blown by the wind. And at last I was few steps near her shop when I saw my Jem. She was carrying several bags and she looked a bit different from the last time I saw her. " I knew you would come here!" She said with a sarcastic smile on her face. I told her I was just going to say thank you and give this humble cake as a friendly gesture. "No need to be ashamed, as long as we keep our mouth closed, everything will be fine" she said with a wink before she called the cab.
I did not understand what she said. I went inside her shop and I felt I was immediately transported in a magical place. There were dozens of sparkling gorgeous soaps greeting me. They were very colourful and smelled like heaven. There were lavenders, rose, honey and all kinds of fruits infused on different soap bars. On the other corner, there were jars filled with perfumed oil made by mixtures of wild flowers. The other jars had creams, balms, ointments and body butter all made from the purest natural ingredients that you would want to eat them because they smelled and felt so good. I felt like a goddess. There were also candles with different colors and crystals decorating it.
" Welcome to my shop. I hope you will find something you need." a voice said. It was her, the majestic beauty I saw the other day. I did not noticed that she was sitting at the corner mixing some oils. I was so embarrassed because I was like a kid inside a candy store and she saw the way I forcefully opened some containers and smelled their contents. " Oh don't be shy. I encourage everyone to enjoy their senses when they are here. I'm Arabella, just call me Bella."
