chapter thirty

Harper pov

I got into the shower and fresh up from a very long unexpected day which made me fall asleep after coming out of the bathroom and slept till five in the morning, I got up and prepared to head out of the room when realization hit me that I was supposed to go down for dinner last night which aunt pee informed me about; I quickly made haste towards the kitchen and she wasn't there but rather sleeping in her room which made me walked outside to do a little juggling exercise to help calm my head a little.

The atmosphere outside this morning was very calm and the dew which were still on the garden makes the place more ethereal and relaxing to the mind, I ran round the house a couple of times which goes unbeknowst to me even if I did enjoyed my little exercise caused it did help calm my racing thoughts; afterwards I sat at the bench in the garden and remained there with the thoughts of what happened at the Halloween party still racing through my mind since I haven't explained my part to the guys.

I saw a bottle water been stretched from my side and it startled me a bit which made aunt to apologize if she disturbed my thoughts in anyway; I tried getting up as soon as I saw her and she motioned for me not too whilst sitting close to me and she said it was normal to be tried from the loads of information which I received from yesterday and she doesn't blame me, while I sat there listening to her words and sipping on the bottle of water which she gave me.

We both sat there for a couple of minutes and I asked her how long has it been since dad left for New York already and why didn't he call me directly than going off like that and mom just lost her memory which makes me feels like I'm all alone in this world, and I felt all the penting frustration from last night's Halloween party failure with the guys to seeing mom's current stage with her health; slowly loosing the furstation which made me feel a bit better and I threw my head into my palms.

Aunt patted my back while I kept my head down amidst my palm and cried a bit from the crushing emotions which I felt right now and aunt said to me that mom knew it would be hard for me that's why she asked her to be here whenever the time ever arrive for me to need someone to talk to, and I raised my head and she spread her arms wide which I took as an invitation and hugged her.

She told me it would all be fine that mom was a fighter and she is still fighting even through all this that has happened with her already and I should be rather strong for her as a means of encouraging her forward, and I whispered thank you to her amidst the hugged and she pulled away slightly and asked me to get ready she would be taking me out to a museums which displays artwork just like I've always wanted.

I stood up along with her and she asked me to go get ready and see her at the dinning table in an hour while saying I shouldn't forget to get to pull out the artistic and charismatic side of me on our trips later on and I nodded at her words half heartedly and went towards my room, I took a shower and put on a black full selves top and a blue jean pants with a pair of sneakers while tying my hair in a ponytail and I looked at the mirror and saw my reflection on the mirror were I recall how mom would always tries to make me feel better when my mood is gloomy.

Soon I came down towards the kitchen and saw aunt was all set with breakfast and she motioned for me to come seat and have my meal with her; I took my seat and she said mom told her I love good food alot which made her ordered a very nice breakfast from an high end restaurant which severs mouth watering food, and she was right cause seeing the food made me hungry and I ate a lot of food which made me filled and I became surprise how I ate this much.

We finished breakfast and she asked me if I would be taking anything with me since it was a once in a while visit and I should take advantage of this opportunity since I'm studying theater art and I could get a bit of inspiration from it, If anything wasn't certain about my aunt; something was which was her being wealthy and she was greedy about spoiling me with it and I asked her to give me a second to go get my cells whilst she called me to come over that she has everything I would need.

I looked at her skeptical for a seconds and she brought out an iPad which she handed me and said it was the recent model with lots of added features which she wanted me to have and she said we should leave now if we want to catch our flight, and I looked at her with much shock in my eyes and aunt said we would be heading towards France for the trip to the museum which made me dumbfounded; like I've wanted to visit it with mom and I did tell her before she got into the theater for her surgery, like those were some of the memories we both promised to make when she gets better.

I followed aunt all the way and through the ride I couldn't help but wish mom was here with me right now more than anything; and it seems like aunt saw through my thoughts and said she wanted me to be happy so why should I be moody now whilst asking me to cheer up that mom wanted the best for me even if she knew she might not be here all the time to see me this happy, soon we arrived at the airport and what I found very surprising was that we got our own flight to France and she said let's go have fun Harper.
