Chapter 2 - Spring season: New beginning

A beginning of a new season the long awaited spring was here after the constant blizzard and cold blown from the cold and icy feel of winter. The spring was like a calm after all the turbulence allowing for the sun to peek in through the dense clouds and melting away all the remnants of snow, giving a fresh feel of the ray of the sun letting the warmth seep into our bodies the constant reminder of something new.

Ayla woke up with a smile on her face feeling the refreshing scent of spring which carried a lingering scent of blooming flowers and soft drizzles. Also taking in the scent of freshly made bacon ,quickly scurrying from bed she tidied her room rainsed her mouth in the sink and made her way downstairs.The sound of hurried footsteps reverberated through the entire house. Finally making her way downstairs she glanced at where the aroma of the freshly made bacon and eggs were wafting from and in her line of sight was Madame Christopher Dolores who wore a dull apron at the fireplace turning in time to catch sight of her granddaughter making way towards where the food was being laid on the table, Arya greeted with a kiss to both sides of the elderly woman's cheek Good morning Gigi she said enthusiastically a nickname she called her grandma.

Madame Dolores with a smile plastered on her face welcomed her adorable daughter's greetings..Good morning to you too Ayla dear. Madame Dolores was a short lean woman, with big eyes and small lips set firmly, her wrinkled face accenuated the number of years she had spent as they had shrivelled with time, she had a head full of white hair which she tied up in different styles . She got the name Madame Dolores for her ever poised and composed manner as she was once a governess in her time and though she now had a slightly arched back and her body looked lean it didn't diminsh her aura, stealth and firm words etched from the years of being a governess who imbided knowledge and honed skills of young people And though Madame Dolores was strict she was still the most loving and caring grandmother to her family.

" You look horrid sister ayra" a small voice broke through behind the Gigi and ayra duo turning around ayra caught sight of her younger brother who had graciously position himself at the seat where the fresh food where laid his ocean blue eyes which where calm like the sea stared at them."Go fix your hair sister ayra it looks worst than a bird next, anymore than this and I'm pretty sure you will have lots of bugs, roaches and actual birds living inside"he said looking at his sister disheveled long black hair ;Gigi who had heard him burst into a fit of laughter she commented "be nice to your elder sister Eric she simply forgot to brush her hair before rushing out...she trailed but it does look like a bed nest"she added while Eric who sat aside gave a look of "told you".

Ayra who had been pleased to hear gigi defend her stood there gosbmacked. She looked at her brother who was no more than seven. who had now started eating the bacon she went over and then not so nicely ruffled his hair while he looked aghast at his perfectly combed hair been ruffled.Now we're both looking horrid she laughed.

In the moment of their childish banter gigi came over with a small cake in hand,on it was inscribed congrats on your final year ayra." Happy final year ayra muttered Gigi and Eric with smiles on their face" I and Eric woke up early to prepare this for you, we know how important this is for you and all the struggles you went through to get here;I wish you a happy and smooth final year and new beginnings"me too;Eric added "blow out the candle sister ayra" Eric said looking at his sister who looked like she was at the edge of combusting into a feet of tears.
