Prompt: door key
In her childhood, she loved stories about secret doors. She devoured the Narnia books, reread "The Secret Garden" until the book fell apart, grew up expecting every hidden room or unusual doorway to lead her somewhere wonderful. Gradually, the secret doors gave way to other dreams, more practical ideas. Rose stopped looking for the gateway to fairyland, started applying for jobs.
So much has changed.
Now, every night in her not-father's mansion, she takes out the key to the most magical place she has ever seen. She used to think that would be the hard part of finding fairyland.
