Chapter 4 – the Letter
Emma walked into her flat, noticing Mary Margaret cooking at the stove. Emma watched her, fully inspecting the smell of the food cooking before her. "What are you cooking? Cause It Smells divine." She leaned over Mary and watched the food simmer in the pan.
Mary laughed at Emma, turning to look at her. "It's a new recipe I've created." She tells Emma. "It's something David wanted me to do. "
"Oh, David." Emma pouted her lips at to Mary Margaret. She then looked down to the pan taking in the imaginary taste. Emma began to feel drool coming to her mouth just from how scrumptious it smelled. She leaned her head to the side, looking back at Mary Margaret. "So, um can you tell me what this unknown food is?" Emma asked her, awaiting her response.
Mary leaned forward, giving Emma a huge smirk. "That Emma, I cannot tell. It's a secret." Mary Margaret sniggered, pulling back before she continued to stir the food.
Emma looked at Mary Margaret with disappointment, she wanted to know but damned if Mary wouldn't tell her. She was being mean. Emma fluffed it off, and walked over to the dining room table where she noticed a letter sitting between the bread holders. "A letter?" She said, eying the black envelope to find it was addressed to her.
"Mary..." she called loudly. "Who's this from?" She inspected it thoroughly as she held it in her hands before waving it at Mary-Margaret.
Mary Margaret blinked, realizing she forgot the letter. She tapped her forehead to refresh her memory. She turned the stove off, placing the pan onto the other side and walked over to Emma. She grabbed Emma's hands and smiled at her.
"It's from Mr. Gold. It was kind of strange that he came up and handed it to me though." She pointed to the letter in Emma's hands. "It's quite unreal, if you ask me. Anyway what's in it?" Mary said with excitement in her voice.
Emma chuckled a little at Mary Margaret, and grabbed the letter opener off the table and opened the letter slowly. Once it was open, she pulled out a small beige note. Inside was a gold ring with a delicately carved rose.
"Oh my, what a beauty." Mary Margaret said. She was in awe of the ring Emma held at her fingertips.
They both eyed the ring thoroughly, noticing a white diamond crafted in the middle of the gold. Emma turned her head to Mary Margaret and blushed crimson. Never in her life had she ever received gifts off any guys she knew, not even Henry's father. Then again, this was different from anything she had done before. The ring didn't look new, it looked quiet ancient and Emma found herself in love with the treasure that Mr. Gold bestowed upon her. That was until she stopped and read the letter in front of her...
Emma.
When I was in the cell, I couldn't help but think of the mistakes I have made in my lifetime. I am deeply sorry for kissing you out of the blue, but you reminded me of someone
From my past life, someone I can't seem to let go
You're so alike in some many ways, which is what attracts me to you.
Hope you like my little gift.
~Mr. Gold. ~
Emma paused for a moment, and takes it all in. She rubbed her forehead, now feeling confusion set in. She turned back to Mary Margaret who had returned to cooking in the kitchen.
"Mary Margaret, I need to go to Mr. Gold. I can't accept his gift... It would be wrong for me to do so." Emma folded the letter back, put the ring into her hand and walked over to the front door.
Mary Margaret turned, shocked to hear her best friend's reaction towards the ring that Mr. Gold bestowed upon her. "Emma, no." She turned off the gas again. She rushed to her side and stopped her before she could leave the apartment. "Emma, Mr. Gold gave you that as a gift for his mistake in the cell. Don't take it back Emma, it will probably backfire on you."
Emma stepped back, disapproving her best friend's words. "But Mary Margaret, it doesn't feel right, I don't deserve all this."
Mary Margaret smiled to her and grabbed her hands. "Emma you deserve it, you deserve a lot of things. Go and see him but don't." She pointed her finger at her. "Don't give him back that ring, it's for you."
"I'm sorry Mary Margaret, but I cannot keep it." She cut her off, and opens the door forcefully. "I'll be back in a bit okay?" Emma exited the apartment.
Mary-Margaret quickly chases after her but stops. "Emma! Don't you'll regret it." Mary shouted down to her. Mary sighed hard and leaned her body against the wall and whispered. "Emma, You don't know what you're doing."
