The Rose and the Honeysuckle — Chapter 2
The
strangers were standing up and had wrapped their cloaks in their arms. The man
had the bags in his hand and Tina noticed the wrapped hilt of a sword peaking
through his saddle bags. The woman had tied a bright blue velvet scarf around
her head that was a shade lighter than her cloak. They both looked at her
expectantly and followed as Tina motioned up the stairs. Tina walked up feeling
the dark, oak underneath her as if she was seeing the staircase for the first
time. It was rumored that either ogres or dwarves had carved the intricate
banister from some of the oldest trees in the forest. Tina didn’t know the
truth but as she walked up the steps trailing her fingers along the dark
mahogany banister, she felt as if she was looking at the steps for the first
time. In fact, Tina felt like everything that she was looking at this evening
was for the first time. She breathed in and out slowly. She made her way down
the empty but warmly lit corridor to the largest doors, three from the right to
Tina’s own bedroom. She opened them quickly and smiled at how fresh and clean
it smelled. There was a faint hint of honeysuckle in the air and a new bouquet
on the stand. However back country and farm like this inn was, it always
smelled nice, fresh, and clean due to the loving care that both her parents put
into it. The man and woman swept into the room and looked pleased with the
choice. As the woman started to lay her gloves down and open her bags, the man
walked quickly to the window and surveyed the town, and Tina gently placed the
towels and soap by the washbasin and turned to leave.
“You’re
also a healer, aren’t you?” came the very soft, deep voice behind her. Tina
turned, surprised and found herself once again under this woman’s gaze.
“Yes, I
mean, I’m an apprentice to my mother but I am to take over her duties when I’m
older.”
“You seem
young to be taking over such a task.”
