darting about‚ I find a peculiar set of smooth stepping stones that’ll take me out into the water. Hopping from stone to stone‚ I make my way closer to the family of geese. Finally I get close enough to take a good look at the culprit ‚and to my surprise it was a goldfish except this goldfish was ten times bigger than anyone I’ve seen. Soon I realized this wasn’t a goldfish but a Koi fish; he was even bigger up close. I wasn’t sure if they are omnivores‚ but they could have easily swallowed one of

The minibus jolted to a halt. Taking a step down‚ I tried to piece everything that had happened. Aunt Adeline‚ Ava‚ the man – strangely by the name of Dimitri Viavondachi… Mama. The gap between the last step and the molten coloured dusty earth‚ was wide and as big as the fissure of weariness‚ agony‚ and hurt‚ swirling deep in the empty depths.
