GETTING CLOSER

 

" Goodness! This place is huge ! I hope I'm  now going the right way to find the house !" worries the new girl.

" I wonder if there's been a storm? with all these leaves and bits of twig lying around!"

" Now which way do I go? "

Just as she's about to round the big blue pot a voice says " There you are!"

" Yes here I am " she replies " Thank goodness you have come, I've been wandering round this place for what seems like days!"

" Oh sorry "  says Magda " You missed Toby and Zak who came to collect your luggage, so I was sent to find you. I'm Magda one of your new sisters "

" Nice to meet you Magda, I'm Saskia. I think I turned the wrong way out the station, I landed up by a dry stream bed with a small deep pool "

"Yes definitely the wrong way " declares Magda " Never mind we have found you now, you'd best come along with me, Mum's waiting to meet you "

" Great I could do with a sit down " Saskia says tiredly " I've walked for hours "

" Come on then, let's get you home for a nice rest and a cuppa and a piece of fruit cake, mum's been baking "

"Sounds wonderful" 

With that Magda turns, with Saskia following behind they head towards the house which Saskia can finally see up ahead. A sit down with a piece of fruit cake and a cup of tea sounds bliss! She just hopes she doesn't nod off!
