The Adventures Of Josephine And Celeste

Spring time after Valentines day

Spring time arrived, while she struggled to make everyone happy, or trying to make herself happy like before. She went outside to see the new shopping stuff, for members of the family, the best mother, the best daughter, the best husband, the best father... Silver or gold fake jewellery for Spring Arrival Festival, brooches on different shapes or forms, clover, hearts, roses, true flowers or fake flowers, fluffy decorations for the schoolbag, carriages painted in white with birds and roses inside, something that anyone would love or like. Jenny wanted to buy a fluffy decoration for Mimi and flowers with message on the wood for her mother (or for her too).

The sun rays were flooding the streets and her face, while she was gazing at people with kids or friends, passengers or residents, that were strolling everywhere. On a piece of paper it was a nice message "For the best grandma, you cheer me up when I'm upset, you hold me when I'm lonely, you take care of me when I'm sick, you help me when I'm in trouble. Thank you for everything you have done. I love you." 

She sipped a glass of juice, took the chocolate cake and the cookies. She tried to write a page in the new journal... But the memories seemed to disappear... 

"Let's go to the park please mom!" 

"Sure, we will, sweetheart, just a second, let me get some hot chocolate." 

"I like it there because it has a twirling place and a castle. My favourite place since I was a baby." 

"Me too. I love it. Remember when you saw a real pony and you wanted to go for a ride? Or when you took a ride in the Tommy train? We didn't have much, but we were happy. You took free rides in cars, because you were tiny and we didn't start the car. And then we met a friend who got us delicious food." 

"Maybe. I hope so." said Mimi. 

Then Jenny found a bench in the sun, while Mimi and her friends were playing in the park. She read a few pages from her new book. People passed by, babies passed by, smells came swiftly, briefly and then they had to go back home again, to start doing homework, to take care of the pets, and to cook or clean. 

The situation wasn't good. She felt like a prisoner, that couldn't escape, to go to her beloved piggies, mice and bunny. Especially to the children, that were scared of the dark or whatever. Who was there to protect them? She had to escape, even if her friend would be upset or if he would become a pig or a dragon.  Jenny realised that she needs a chevalier, like Sir Arnold of Loxley or like Robin Hood. He definitely would know what to do, to rescue her. She wanted to be alone, but she couldn't... Feeling like she needs to become a nun... Or a powerful creature... She wanted to work somewhere new (like the flower shop, or the castle maid), but she didn't got rewarded. She felt like nobody appreciated her. Her father did, he appreciated her... They haven't talked on a long time.
