An Age Old Promise

I

~Third-person P.O.V~
Life in Prague has been fine and so far, there are no time travel incidents. Everyone seemed to got over what happened and they've lived a normal life, especially for Natalie. She worked fine and her coworkers seemed to not bother her with her title. Back to normality is what Natalie needed after everything that she has been through.

~Natalie's P.O.V~
It's a rainy day in December here in Prague and honestly, I almost forgot how it sounds and feels like. I took a shelter under a nearby bus stop from the rain. It hasn't snowed today but maybe it will in a few days. As always... it's already cold during the end of the year. On most days, it would be really cold but the snowflakes are always a nice sight.

The distance back to my apartment is actually close from where I am now but I'll wait a bit until the rain dies down. It only takes a short walk and I would take a tram to the library. About thirty minutes of waiting, the rain died down and I continued walking. "It's just a drizzle..." I held out my palm to check and I walked back with my hoodie up.

I actually brought my umbrella but too lazy to open it. Sometimes, I visit the memorial to pay respects. I'm not that religious but I feel that it's a nice thing to do. Speaking of which... Wolf replied to the picture I sent and he was nostalgic. He talked a bit about his former protégé and sounds that he's really proud of Reinhard.

Darky found out about my little conversation and she snatched my phone to show it to Aunt Mag. I wouldn't lie if I weren't super embarrassed about it. I took my phone back and luckily Aunt Mag didn't ask or made a fuss about it. My sister sometimes can't give me a break from not showing the things I like but hey! At least they enjoyed the trip I promised.

"I'm back..." I announced myself after opening the door. I never really have any roommates since I moved to Prague. I don't mind living by myself but having a homie sounds nice even though they will annoy the heck out of me. I closed the door back and plopped myself of the couch, sighing out all the stress of the day.

Work is fine and my co-workers still think it's a cool thing to have the title. I've gotten used to be called by the title now and I think what Wolf said might be right. I just finished changing clothes after shower and I heard my phone rang. "Hello?" I picked it up and it was Darky on the other end. "Hi, Darky! Checking in?" I asked. "Y-yeah. H-how are you?" I chuckled and answered that I'm doing fine.

"How about you?" I asked back. Darky told me that she and Klaus are doing fine and so does the shop. "D-do you w-want to send s-some flowers?" she asked. "Hmm..." I thought for a bit. "I'll have the usual and maybe a bouquet of white tulips with irises and maybe striped carnations if you have them." I requested. "W-we'll check on the carnations." Said Darky and I could hear Klaus asking about the last flowers on the list. I asked Darky to pass my word that I want to try a new combination.

"You still haven't change." Apparently, Klaus took the phone. "Yeah, says the one who's at the other end." I countered him. I heard him huffing and said that the bouquets will come in a couple of days to a week.

A.N : Here's the first chapter! I'm still going to continue this whatever it takes. I know I'm still grieving and I think I'll never stop but idk... let's see how I'll do while this book is in progress. That's all for this note and I'll see you guys in the next chapter... RD out! Boi!!
