Daise and a sunflower

Next day morning Katherine was waken by the rooster crowing in Walden's inn. She woke up and done her morning routines, later she walked down to find Mrs. Walden already cooking breakfast.

"good morning" Katherine greated Mrs. Walden.

"good morning dear" she replied with her morning smile "did you had any trouble last night?" she asked Katherine.

"no, Mrs. Walden. I had a wonderful rest"

"I'm making some breakfast, I don't know if you like it or not. I forgot to ask you about breakfast yesterday"

"that's fine, Mrs. Walden. I don't need anything special!"

"Mrs. Walden, where is John? I told him I have somewhere to go."

"Thomas and John went to get some things from the market. They will come in some time."

I kept watching how elegantly he was cooking and preparing breakfast.

Some time later John and Mr. Walden came back and we had breakfast. Mrs. Walden's food tasted amazing. Then John asked me to get ready to go as he was free.

I slipped into a graceful black dress, put on my mother's pearls and went downstairs where John was waiting.

As I walked down everybody eyes were on me especially John's, his eyes spoke differently. We got in his truck.

"okay! Tell me where should I take you first?" John asked

"flower shop" I replied.

We went to the market area and found a flower shop around the corner.

When I opened the shop door its door bell rang and shop keeper was alerted. He walked toward me.

"miss, what are you looking for?"

"I looking for some bouquet for tombstone!"

"which flower are you looking for?"

"I need 5 daises bouquet and 1 sunflower bouquet"

"please wait" telling that he went to get the bouquet ready.

I paid and came out with hand full of bouquets so John jumped in to help me with the flower. I asked him to go to the cemetery.

He came along with me with the flowers and left after I placed them on each tombstone.

Today seems like my nightmare came to reality. All alone standing at my family's tomb brought great pain and void inside me. Being here brought in me a great guilt of breaking my promise with my mom. I know that my mother would be unhappy with me coming back . I told her that I'm here to make the thing right and to get our home back from the evil, I want to make it feel pain that I have gone through. I will make it repay. I prayed for some time and left with teary eyes.

John was waiting for me in his pickup truck. We left the cemetery, both of us were silent for sometime, John couldn't keep quiet forever so he started talking

"miss, why did you buy a sunflower bouquet?"

"it was for my younger brother, Samuel he used to love sunflower, one day we went to our family friend's funeral, while coming back he told me that he want sunflower instead of white flowers at the funeral. He told me that white flowers make him feel sad and boring so he want something beautiful and that makes him feel happy like sunflower.

I didn't take that seriously back then but now life has brought me here"

"miss, I'm sorry!" he told with sympathy.

"no you don't have to be, now I'm used to my reality" I stated

"John! One more thing, you don't have call me miss! Instead You can call me Katherine"

"okay miss.. I mean Katherine". We smile and drove back to walden's inn.
