Ficool

Chapter 3 - Chapter 2

As she promised herself, she is back at the sisters household. She raises her wrist, 8:34 A.M. she came as early as possible, she has the whole month to fester and bother the women.

In hindsight bothering them is rude and it might drastically lead to a lawsuit or something but she would not think of it right now.

She knocks at the door this time with a hint of urgency, when there was no sign of movement at the door she knocks again.

"Hello Miss Lottie!" She knocks

"Miss Marnie! It's me Idalia" She knocks

"I'm here for the interview" She knocks

"Again" She knocks

She raises her hand again but paused for a moment, she purses her lips briefly considering her actions next.

"Please Ma'am let me just talk to one of you" She knocks

"It's very crucial for my career" She knocks

Maybe they weren't even home? She thought, it is Sunday after all. She sat at the porch, mentally berating herself, why had she forgotten about Sunday mass? As much as she was thorough small details would always fly pass her head, so here she was waiting for the sisters to come back.

Insects took a bite out of her and the sun was shining up above her, she looks at her watch again, 11:38 A.M. When would they be back? What could possibly two older woman do at a Sunday. She could think of several things really but she is just impatient.

Maybe they were avoiding her? Maybe they knew she would be back? Of course they would, she's not the first journalist to ever pester them.

She should've come prepared, she should've lathered the sunscreen all over her body, she should've brought her insect spray.

Her spiralling thoughts was abruptly cut off when the door suddenly opened "Oh dear I thought you were gone" She snapps her head back at the door.

"Well your resilience is admirable Miss Idalia but we won't give you an interview" Lottie said, pity in her eyes.

"Wait!" She stood up and ran to the door "Please listen! I really need this interview!" She pleads

"They always say that" Miss Marnie says behind her sister "Just go already girl, your just wasting your time" Marnie adds

"What if I make an article about you too?" She said desperation at her voice, but that seemed to do the trick.

"Well did you hear that Marnie?" Suprised laced through Lottie's voice "An article about us, not just about her! Granted that we would be interviewed about her but still"

"Suit yourself then Lottie"

The door opens wide and excitement floods her chest "Thank you so much!" she enters the threshold and the air around the house was still warm, many trinkets still dangle on the ceiling, pure plants still swarmed the house.

This time she sees more, a glass mosiac adorned the walls up to the stairs, why hadn't she noticed this before?

She was guided back at the living room again "Sit down girl" Miss Marnie said to her "Do you want a drink darling?" Miss Lottie said, she shakes her head no.

"I would like to start if you don't mind" She sheepishly says and Miss Lottie just smiled at her

"Well what do you want to know?"

"Everything from the start!"
