Savannah
Not all those who wander are lost.
The Fellowship of the Ring, J. R. R. Tolkien
Am I at the correct address?
Savannah Collins was well aware of the phenomenon where houses that
had once seemed so big as a child became smaller in adulthood. But her
aunt Eleanor’s home wasn’t just smaller than she remembered; it was also
overgrown with flowering vines to the point that she could barely make out
the house’s mauve-colored siding.
Savannah reached up to press the doorbell but stopped when she noticed
a sign hanging in the paned glass window.
NO NEED TO KNOCK. COME RIGHT ON IN.
The invitation took a moment to register. Surely her aunt didn’t just
allow people to walk into her home without permission? As Savannah
pondered, the door opened, and a girl looked up at her. She was maybe
eleven or twelve and had long strawberry blonde hair and big blue eyes.
She looked familiar even though Savannah was certain she’d never seen her
before.
“Who are you?” The girl cocked her head to one side, looking put off by
Savannah’s mere presence. One side of her lip drew up in a snarl. “And
what’s with the humongous hat?”
Savannah reached up to touch the wide brim of her hat. Out of habit,
she’d taken it off her dashboard before stepping out of her car. There was
no cure for lupus but staying away from certain triggers like sun exposure
helped. Not that the day was sunny. Instead, clouds had been rolling in for
the last hour, creating a thick and stormy gray sky. “I’m Savannah. And you
are?”
Instead of answering, the girl said, “Are you here for books?”
Savannah remembered that her aunt had a small library in the garden out
back. Savannah’s uncle had built it for Aunt Eleanor many years ago, and
neighbors loved to stop by to chat and check out a book. “Actually, I’m
here to see Eleanor. She’s my aunt.”
As Savannah waited for the girl to respond or step aside, the stray kitten
that Savannah had somehow adopted in the last week wiggled around inside
the large straw bag hanging from her shoulder. Savannah couldn’t leave it
in the hot car, which is exactly what she’d done with the thirty or so plants
she’d traveled with this morning.
Savannah had always had an interest in plants, which was why she’d
gone to college to study botany. A lot of good that degree had done her so
far in life. Currently, she had a modest online store where she sold plants,
and she also ran a vlog and social media page with the same name—Late
Bloomer. Those things didn’t pay the bills though. At the moment, nothing
was paying the bills.
“Ms. Eleanor is in the kitchen,” the girl said, still not stepping aside.
“You weren’t about to ring the bell, were you? Because Ms. Eleanor doesn’t
answer the door anymore. Just walk in.”
Savannah shook her head. “What do you mean Eleanor doesn’t answer
the door anymore? Why not?”
