chapter two – Granny's
Rose walked along the main street of the town of Storybrooke. She was tired and cold, and didn't know if her mother even wanted to see her. She saw the aglow of a small diner, with the word "Granny's" glowing above the door. Rose walked in, and saw the cramped room was full of life, for a small town.
"Evening, darling", she heard the voice of an old woman say. Rose smiled and the woman found her a place to sit. "What can I get you?"
"Coffee, thanks", she said and the woman smiled, walking away. A tall dark haired girl was making her coffee, and handing the cup to a young man. He walked toward Rose and set the cup on the table.
"Thanks", Rose said and pulled out her phone. Her Google search read "Rose Ory, Storybrooke". She was trying to find some info about her mother, where she lived and such.
"Looking for Ruby, love?" the boy asked. Rose looked up and put her phone down. The boy was looking at his notebook, writing something on it.
"Yeah, you know her?" she asked. He nodded, still keeping eyes on the notebook. He pointed behind him, at the tall dark haired woman. She was making coffee, handing it out to the customers sitting across from the counter. She was tall and beautiful, and young, too young. Too young to be the mother of a seventeen year old. Rose gave a breath and nearly began to cry. She'd come all this way for the wrong woman.
"No, no I'm not", she said and got up. She walked out of the diner and toward the motel next to it. She'd sleep, then go back home. Her father must be so worried by morning, but she didn't care right then.
"You", Rose laughed nervously when she saw the boy behind the counter of the motel.
"Yep", he said. "I work here too."
"Okay, I need to stay the night", she said and searched for her wallet from her bag. It was an old leather bag, supposedly having had belonged to her mother once upon a time. It was the only thing Rose had of hers.
"Just one?" he sounded almost disappointed.
"Yeah just one," Rose said, taking a look at his name tag, "Tommy."
