Cheryl P.O.V
The shrill ring of my alarm clock wakes my with a start. Time for another day. I sigh as I get out of my bed. I immediately head in the direction of the coffee machine. I need it. As I'm waiting for my mug to fill up with the boiling water, I open up my kitchen cabinet to get some sugar. I see maple syrup in the cupboard. I internally groan. Maple syrup reminds me of Riverdale. In a good way it reminds me of happy times with Jason until that fateful summer but apart from that it's all bad memories. Even though I left Riverdale just over 4 years ago and now live in a stylish New York apartment, it still haunts me to this very day. To many bad memories. Death, nastiness, secrets. I'm still thinking of Thornhill when I see the steam billowing from my coffee cup and realise it's ready. I quickly get out the sugar and sprinkle it in. The aroma of coffee surrounds me and my thoughts on Riverdale fade as I prepare for a busy day's work.
When I arrive home it is late and all I want to do is sleep but I know that I could get a call from the company at any moment asking for my help. As much as I enjoy saving citizens of the country, it is tiring work.
More coffee I guess. I switch on the machine and reach for sugar again. Memories of Riverdale come flooding back again as quickly as coffee dissolves in water. I can't escape that town. Just then my mobile rings. More work. No. It's Penelope. With all the secrets of the Blossom family, I hardly even call her mum anymore. I lost my trust. I have to answer the call though. "Hello," I say shakily. She still scares me despite all this time.
"Cheryl Blossom. You must return to Riverdale to see me. Urgently." Comes he voice.
Wow. She left me a recorded message. She won't even talk to her own daughter. Not even an explanation. Oh! There is more to the message.
"To attend Great Aunt Delilah's funeral, press 1."
Great Aunt Delilah? Who is she? Another Blossom I didn't know existed...
I wait for more options but none come. I press 1. I guess I book flights and I'll just have to stay at Thornhill. My stomach lurches at the thought of my hometown and the people there. They probably still hate me. I have tried to change... I decide that I'm going to prove that to them.
