Sonny stood there in her beautifully hand woven apron, the bright bold colours in a vivid contrast, the only thing that she had left of the one she dearly and desperately needed, the thin long pieces of string were created into vutterflies, small cute woodland creatures, a glistening gold sun, as well as swaying trees shedding their tiny shrivelled dark coloured all there was two small cuddling figures laying closely, resting on a deep dark tree bark-one wearing a warm sunny dress with tiny yellow button shoes(the child) another, the older of the two, was wearing a plainly pleated white skirt with a light and dark striped green shirt. They were watching everything silently in there warm kind magical world.
She remembered those days happily with great reality, the day of just those two, happy and confident and kind, taking on the world together, invinsible;lovable, honourable the best and the greatest… dreaming of the days when there time would come in the bright gold spotlight, together forever, doing anything and everything in there own unique and crazy way…What ever happened with that?
In a swift tuneful way, she stirred the thick light brown mixture with a large metal whisk, as she swept a smelly sweaty forehead and poured the final lot of sticky tasty mixture into the boiling sooty black saucepan, hearing the loud crackling sound, the telephone rang the startling repeative rhythm of 'So Randoms' theme tune echoing loudly off of the colourfully cluttered felt like my head was about explode in a big fat bang at any moment soon.
"Hello"Sonny asked in a rather agitated, angry tone, my hands sorting the neat tidy newly folded school uniform of jackos school.
"Morning Miss Monroe, This is the head leader of the people here at St Grovens Ministry Funeral Parlour-"
Suddenly a rush of fear sadness and outburst of grief quickly swooped over me; causing me to drop our long thick green I feel to the ground, terrified of the slow quiet murmurings that I clearly heard through the horrible blur I vaguely thinking Sonny quickly pressed the tiny square blue button, hanging up through a weird instinct.
Minutes later after entirely laying the table of fresh tasty breakfast and the emerald and ruby chequered tablecloth(attempting to put a cheerful festive mood to the houseas it was days before Christmas )Sonny sat there here thin ruby red lips quivering rapidly, her large deep dark brown eyes staring intently at nothing, a thin long watery trail slowly traickling down her ghotly pale smooth skin with her hair beautifully tangled into jet black thick ringlets, holding her brightly spotted mug in a tight secure grip, her slender white arms like bones-thin firm and utter pure chrystal sat there, emotions flooding entirely, Lily Rose pondered in, clutching her old cheap teddy bear, his smooth golden fur slightly dirty, ruffled and helpless. Lil's large round piercing blue eyes tearfully bored into mine, her golden hair silky,curly and radiant,with her little cute illuminous pink pyjamas creased and terribly worn from previous years of fun, laughter and joy.
She leant her chubby pink arms in front of her, me quickly she ran towards me with quick loud plod as she jumped onto my lap and she cuddled me tightly, smelling her sweet childish smell and curling her exquisite golden thin hair with my long frail index finger, her heavy slow breaths high drawn out whimpers were occasional and I couldn't help but cuddle her in a tight warm embrace-it felt as though it was utterly impossible to let go no matter the strength or the force she used to do so.
"Sweetie, what's wrong-another bad dream?"Sonny asked sympathetically in her clear wet voice.
"Yeah it was about mummy-sh' wa in a box n' wasn't wakin' upp, and I try wakin her u' bu she neva did-did I not push heard enoug'?"Lily asked wistfully, unaware of the sudden fear and sadness exploding through sonny, tiny baby blue specs of water racing quickly down her now ghostly white face-this was to hard and painful to do alone.
"Darling" Sonny replied, whipping her damp pure white face on the back of her bright yellow t-shirt "Mummy's gone into a deep deep sleep and the doctor people are saying that she might stay in that sleep for a very very long is very peacful and relaxed though-they say she's gone high up In the fluffy bouncy clouds and speaking with grammie right this second!"Sonny hiccoughed slightly, her voice now completely dry and swollen from the flooding of blue watery tears gradually building up her throat. "She's not in any pain anymore like she was, she's happy and healthy like you and me" Sonny gave a small warm smile, repelling the emotional crying she soo deeply needed to do.
Lily gave a puzzled look, her forehead scrunched up tightly "Wil' she be bac'fo christma' sissy to e' santa's pezzies and make food?" Lily asked again with a hopeful broad red smile, with which sonny simply gave a small little frowning shake of the head.
"My Birthday?" she wondered aloud again, puzzled, with the same response again after the other festive occasions she wondered again continuously, her hope and joy vanishing throughout that time-leaving a sad, tearful Lily.
"Will I eva see mommy again sonny?" She asked once more with a small hidden frown and sheeded tears
"Yes, of course!" Sonny replied a happy and spirited bounce to her high voice, clasping lily's dark pink scrunched hands into a tight fist ball in her own "At night, if you gaze hard enough into the bright silver sky, she'll see you, and wave her funny happy wave-"
"Like she used to?"
Smiling a cheerful relaxed grin, she replied astounded"Of course!" pinching her tiny button nose "And tell her that she loves you and misses you with all of her heart and know that your safe and quiet at home, healthy and ok singing you a soothing noursery lullaby in her beautiful voice amd whisper soo quietly you cant hear "night my little lovely Lily sweet dreams-make sure the bed bugs don't bite!"and gaze down on you, merry and silent"She whispered into her tiny round ear,cuddling her as tight and secure as ever, realising that she was gazing into the golden reddish sunrise outside in the early spring morning air.
"God rest mommy, Sonny-I miss her lots as much as Mr whiskers, Grammie and candy!Is she watching now do you think?"Lily asked again curiously, surprsingingly jubilant and excited.
After a brief short pause, she replied quietly, tears gradually rolling down her newly coloured bright red face "Always is, always will"
