Was Lost But Now I'm Found

It was raining. Heavily.
She stared out the window as the fat drops hammered against the glass, the suitcase beside her empty and waiting. Two days ago she'd been summoned to the reading of her late aunt's will. £20,000. That's how much she'd been left. Take a trip, treat yourself. That was her aunt's only stipulation.
But where?
Grabbing her coat and an umbrella, she walked to the front door, suitcase still empty on the bed. The rain pounded the street around her as she walked a random course. A car drove past. Then another. She didn't notice, stuck in her own world. Another sped by causing a spray of dirty water to drench her feet. She turned to glare at the passing car only to find herself looking into the face of her lost angel.
"Hi." She said, quietly.
"Hi yourself." Her angel answered. "We've missed you. I've missed you."
She looks away sheepishly. "I didn't want to go..." She trails off.
Her angel wraps an arm around her waist and pulls her closer.
"I know." It's a simple statement but it's what she needs to hear.
They stand there, nothing but each other, the rain pounding down around them.
"Come home." Her angel says at last.
She looks away.
"I can't. You know I can't."
Her angel lifts her chin up so they're face to face again, the love clear in those hazel eyes.
"You can." Her angel says with a light but lingering kiss. "You just need to take your medication."
She laughs softly at that.
"Medication? What medication?"
"I found it. Not a cure but a remedy of sorts. Wolfsbane."
"I've never heard of it..."
"It's new, and it means you can finally come home."
