Yeah yeah, what can I say, it's coming to an end :) / :(

Only a few more chapters and we will find out if there will be a common future for Sherlock and Molly or if she will continue her life in Ireland... ;)

London, 8:42pm, some pub. A table surrounded by three people who were talking and laughing in a relaxed manner. On the table several glasses with drinks.

Greg had invited Molly for a drink this afternoon. After Molly had left this strange and scary place, she couldn't think straight.

'So that was her. The sister of Sherlock and Mycroft- Eurus' was always on her mind.

The invitation came at just the right time and so it was that a little later she found herself in a pub, trying to forget that day by drinking. By an unfortunate coincidence, at least for Greg, they met her friend Meena, who eventually joined them. Molly was happy about the evening. She did not want to be alone after today. And so it came about that Molly, Meena and Greg were now frolicsomely sitting at a table in Greg's favourite pub, as it turned out a short time later, sitting and drinking and chatting and laughing. John was also to join them later.

As exuberant as the mood was, their thoughts kept circling around this conversation.

"I was wondering when you'd show up here, Ms. Hooper"

And it got even worse when suddenly the door swung open. John happily entered the pub and behind him a rather unnerved Sherlock. You could clearly see that he was uncomfortable with the situation and wanted to be somewhere else now. Especially when the eyes of Molly and Sherlock met. He stopped abruptly in his movements and now looked furtively at the woman in front of him and then at the people around her.

He would have liked best to turn around and disappear, but his best friend was quicker and now pulled him to the table with him, where his friends were also sitting and enjoying themselves.

All of a sudden, it was quiet. Everyone seemed quite surprised to see Sherlock here in a pub and cast slightly puzzled glances at the detective. Except Molly. She had lowered her gaze and instead looked at the glass in front of her.

"Of course I didn't expect them to flee to Ireland.''

Molly kept wondering how Eurus could know all this. Then she remembered the room where Eurus was being held. That dark and cold room. With nothing but one, behind glass, a separate room with a bed and a toilet. There were warnings drawn on the glass that stopped her from coming within a few metres. This room, this place instantly made her blood freeze in her veins. She noticed that Mycroft was watching her and was eagerly awaiting her reaction.

Molly took a deep breath and came a little closer. And suddenly the room behind the glass shone in a cold and harsh light. In the middle she could see a person. She had long brown hair and was completely covered in white. She stood with her back to her first. But a little later she finally turned her face towards her and Molly froze instantly. In front of her stood a person who seemed to penetrate her with her gaze. Those eyes. This coldness.

Even though Molly had left this place, she still felt this incredible coldness running through her body.

"Why do people even do what they do?"

Greg suddenly pulled her out of her thoughts and Molly was quite relieved about it.

"And Molly, what have you been doing today?" he asked interested.

Molly thought about it. About her day. Sherrinford. Eurus.

But what could she say? She could feel the looks of the others on her.

'Oh glad you asked. You know, I've had quite an exciting day. I flew in a helicopter, was taken to a place that is actually top secret. I found out the truth about that phone call and then had a chat with Sherlock's sister Eurus. It was nice, she was an absolute psychopath who kept my blood frozen in my veins but yes, it was nice'.

No, she could not do that. Mycroft had certainly already told Sherlock about her visit to his sister. With a quick glance at Sherlock, she then replied to Greg:

"Oh, nothing special. I was looking for new accommodation for my days here in London."

Greg nodded understandingly, then asked her why and a little later turned to his other friends. Sherlock watched her closely the whole time and sensed that Molly was hiding something. Especially when she noticed his gaze and turned away slightly startled.

"Why have you done this to Sherlock, her brother?"

….

"He should feel the suffering that I experienced earlier. I wanted him to feel what it was like to lose everything and have nothing. I never had friends. Never had anyone to love me. I had no one. I was completely alone."

"But why Sherlock and not Mycroft?"

"I've always felt there's a strong connection between us. I loved him. I wanted him to notice me. But he'd failed me, like everyone else.

….

"And why did you choose me for your sick experiments?"

"Oh it's quite simple. Of course I knew you were in love with Sherlock. And I also knew that he had special feelings for her. Even though he always keeps his emotions locked away, I knew the only way I could break him was to open up that gateway. It all went according to plan. Love in great need. The danger of death and a knight, in shining armour, who tried to save her..."

'Eurus had not spoken in the past' she thought as she remembered.

The thoughts seemed to overwhelm her and at some point she couldn't stand it any more. Her neck tightened, she tried to catch her breath. She needed air urgently. She quickly got up, apologised to the others for a moment and ran outside.

Her friends at the table looked at her with astonished glances and watched her. Sherlock was also surprised and looked after her with concern. Her friend Meena was just about to get up and follow her when John grabbed her by the arm and held her back. With one look he indicated to her that it was not necessary, as Sherlock also rose and stormed outside at that moment. With a meaningful look and a light smile she sat down again and left the two of them alone.

NOTE:

So what do you think? Will Sherlock follow her? And what would happen then? After all, their last encounter was not so pleasant...

I'm curious what you think about that and I hope that these reviews of her conversation with Eurus were not quite so confusing...
