On the way to the guesthouse, Judy pointed out things in the distance. She would explain quickly what it was and what connection she had with the place. As she spoke, I noticed that I was focusing less on her words, and more on her.

The twinkle she had in her eye when she was happy. The way she pranced about when she was excited. So many details that I had never really noticed or ever considered before.

I guess I must've looked at her for too long and gotten hazy eyed, because Judy started to appear worried. "Nick are you alright?" She said. I snapped back into reality and realized what I had been doing. "Oh I'm fine! I'm just tired!" I said, feeling my face heat up.

"I guess you must be tired", " let's get you to the guesthouse." She said, the twinkle returning to her eyes.

We walked a little further until we finally reached the guesthouse. "So is there going to be anyone in there with me?" I asked. She grinned. "Oh you big baby. No. It'll only be you and me"

"Oh cool!" I exclaimed.

I might've been lying.

Or maybe I wasn't.

You might never know.
