Reunited

GenXer Shamrocker ☘️

     Amethyst arrives at Agnes’s house and it’s just as she remembered. Asher’s done a fine job with the upkeep since she went away all those years ago in September. Agnes is sitting on the porch swing and can’t believe her eyes; “my dear sweet Amethyst, please come inside.” She gives her a hug as they sit on the swing. “You’re an answered prayer Amethyst; a true blessing.” “Tell me how was studying abroad all this time?” “It was a dream come true Agnes;” “the people, the different cultures; time just seems to have flown by.!” Agnes senses that there’s something more. But she won’t pry. She knows Amethyst will open up in due time. Amethyst spent many years here with Asher. Agnes knew deep down it was his heart she was after. Little does Asher know about the time Amethyst spent here . Cooking dinner for the three of them, enjoying conversation; and shedding some tears. See; Amethyst’s mom moved away when she was just a little girl. Her dad was no where to be found; it was good people like Arthur and Agnes that kept her feet on the ground. So to Amethyst taking care of them is the least she can do. Without the both of them she wouldn’t know what to do. Let’s go inside Amethyst; Arthur can’t wait to see you; will Arthur be just as open? You know what to do.

    It makes sense and wraps up w satisfaction. Is there any symbolism to all names starting w “A”?

    • GenXer Shamrocker ☘️

      No. The names just pop in my mind and I then picture a setting of how I would like it to play out.

        Cool. Thanks
