That night when Analise and Mandrisa had returned to their Manor for a good night of rest since the weekend had come upon them where they both could take a brake from their hectic lives.
But during that night Mandrisa could not sleep no matter how hard she had tried. She had risen from bed time after time during the night her pale silk chemise gliding across her skin like cream as she stood at her window watching the stars in the nightly sky.
She had tried everything but the memories of Mr. Wonka and the tour they had, still haunted inside her mind. The way they had entered a child's paradise. The waterfall of chocolate and the garden of sweets.
The moment they had entered the main room of the factory the children had scattered running in each different direction. Mandrisa was in shock. The smell of sweets brought a warm feeling of being home watching your mother make gooey chocolate brownies. Memories of being a child in a candy store wondering what to take first.
The sweetness was just so overpowering that it took her mind over. She giggled like a 7 year old child and ran towards the candy flowers touching them and taking a bite out of the flower. She smiled as Willy Wonka walked towards her. He didn't say anything at all to her just stood next to her.
The next moment Mandrisa had a yellow tulip in front of her face that Willy had hidden from her behind his back. "Try it..", he whispered as Mandrisa stared at him curiously taking the delicate flower in her hands.
It looked so real she was almost afraid to eat it that he would trick her and she would be eating an actual flower. She took a bite of the small flower and a surge of sweetness entered her mouth. Her taste buds were alive as she took another bite of the sugary flower.
"It's sugar but there's something else in it…", she mumbled as he stared grinning at her reaction. "Do you like it?", a look of eagerness wanting to please her.
She smiled, "Yes it is delicious Mr. Wonka", as he nodded his head happily. "What is your favorite flower Miss. Salaman?", as she shrugged her shoulders. "I have always loved Lily's and Irises. My mother would plant them in our garden often and I would play in that garden for hours", as Willy took her hands in his gentle ones. He led her towards a large candy mushroom as he sat on one gesturing with his hand for her to sit next to him.
She happily sat next to him swinging her legs happily like a small child who couldn't stand still taking another bite out of her candy tulip.
"So what do you think of my factory so far Miss. Salaman?", as he saw Charlie and the other boys having a candy cane sword fight. "Its beautiful Mr.Wonka. No wonder the children are so desperate to come in here and see this fantasy world you have created".
They sat there for a while not a word spoken between them just watching the children run around. "Do you ever get lonely Mr. Wonka? Living here only with those…umm….what do you call them again?", pointing towards the small orange Oompa Loompa's running around.
"They are called Oopma Loompa's Miss. Salaman", as Mandrisa only nodded her head unsure of how to answer this. "And yes…Miss. Salaman I get very lonely. That is why I gave the factory to Charlie but I love this factory and when he told me he didn't want it I knew that this factory was my life not his".
Mandrisa felt a sort of pity for Willy Wonka. He loved this factory but the thought of not being able to share it with someone. Without having to truly enjoy life to the fullest was quite sad, especially for someone who loved life but couldn't enjoy the fruits of it.
Silence had once again taken over as they had gotten off the mushroom and Willy had taken everyone on the rest of the tour. They had not spoken with each other the rest of the day until the end when he had asked her if she wanted to have dinner.
Deep down Mandrisa thought that was very sweet of him but the thought of being in another relationship with a man just bothered her too much. It was too risky. She had to reject it even though a little part of her had cried angrily at herself but she just ignored the cry and rejected his invitation.
For a moment she thought she was stupid. This was an invitation not just for dinner but to understand this man. So many people wanted to know Willy Wonka and he was giving her an offer that many people would never say no to but she did. And now as she stood by the window seeing the factory in the distance she started to regret her decision.
Sleep had finally taken over her as the rays of light started to skim the sky. She had woken up to the sound of knocking on her door. Getting up she grabbed her silk robe covering her chemise, answering the door.
"Good morning Miss! There's a present downstairs for you", as her maid walked away leaving Mandrisa confused. She walked down stairs to find the post man standing there holding a box with fragile written on the side.
"This is for you Miss. Salaman..", tipping his hat at her putting the present down on a small table. "Thank you", she mumbled gently opening the folds of the box to find something inside the box that shocked her.
There in a clear purple vase stood a bouquet of lilies and Irises. She was in shock as she touched the petals of the flowers. Immediately she discovered they were made of candy. The petals of the flowers were made of colored chocolate. The steams were made of candy cane, while the leaves were made of taffy. Even the vase was made of candy. Sugar to be exact. Plain sugar colored purple. She was shocked beyond belief.
Inside was another small box. She took it out and found a small butterfly made of colored sugar attacked to a note.
Dear Miss. Salaman,
I hope you enjoy the candy flowers I had made for you. Since you had told me of your favorite flowers I wanted to make it as a gift to you and a peace treaty. I am hoping that you and your daughter will come visit me sometime….Oh and please Miss. Salaman, please wear another one of your beautiful sun dresses, and please keep you hair down. Your hair looks lovely when its down….
Sincerely,
W.W.
Mandrisa stood there in silence fingering the card with the Butterfly attached watching the lovely flowers made of delectable sweets sit there in their vase mocking her.
"Oh he's good mom", as Analise passed by her going to the library to read leaving her mother standing there day dreaming at the flowers. "I give it a week…", Analise mumbled giggling to herself.
