The Rose and the Honeysuckle — Chapter 2
“Okay,”
said Tina.
“I need you
to take Ms. Porter and Mr. Haspel to their room. They will be staying in the
master suite. I need you to go becauseIwell, I have some things that I need
to attend to, and don’t forget the extra towels and soap.”
“Ms.
Porter? That lady is no more a porter than I’m a lady from Ameryllia,” said
Tina.
Her mother
turned to her sharply, “Well, whoever she may be, you are to treat her with
respect.” And she got up and grabbed her cloak but as she was turning to the
back door, she swung around on Tina and looked directly into her eyes, causing
Tina to stop and stare with surprise. “Listen to me now, child, that woman,
well, she’s aa.she’snevermind,” she shook her head, “that woman is,” she
took a deep breathe, “is a very dangerous woman.” She stopped and pursed her lips
and tightened her gaze on Tina, “Yes, she is a very powerful and dangerous
woman. Her mother licked her lips, “You know, Tina that sometimes the most
potent and deadly flowers are also the most beautiful and come in the most
brilliant colors, and some are even the most delicate.” She stared at Tina and
looked as if she might changer her mind and stay after all but then she grunted
and grabbed her medicine bag and basket and swung out into the night, wrapping
her shawl around her head.
Tina felt
her heart pounding in her chest. She took a deep breathe. ‘O Goddess, give me
strength, what is happening tonight?’ she thought. It was getting late and she
heard the sound of muffled foot stamps as many of the patrons were heading home
or upstairs. The minstrel was now quietly strumming a slow lullaby to encourage
her brothers and sisters to bed. Tina pulled her blond hair back and checked
herself quickly in the kitchen mirror for any flour spots on her face. After a
moment’s hesitation, she pinched her cheeks and lips and pulled a small curl
from her hair that was tied behind her head. She smiled in spite of herself and
shook her head at her mother’s strange warnings. She grabbed the towels and
soap and headed into the next room.
