Going to the market (1)

After getting rid of the spider, Pam has already decided to sell the house, she's been planning to go look for the ancient artifact for a while now so the timing is perfect, besides, it won't take long to find a buyer, the house is in a good position, it has a great view, made from durable materials and it's big enough for a family of five to stay it could be selled at a high price, plus, she can just buy a smaller one afterwards.

This one got passed down to her from her mother for when she'd get married but she hasn't found anyone yet and she isn't planning to, there has always been one person for her and he's not here, she wants no one else.

She'll make the posters and start looking for buyers tomorrow morning, for now she'll pack most of her stuff and store them in a room, she can't carry all of them in the forest anyway, 'selling them would be a waste, I'll still need them when I come back.'

She'll come back......right...?

She decided to ignore the negative thoughts for now as they were doing more harm than good.

To distract herself she decided to go to the market to see if there's anything that catches her eye.

It's a great opportunity to buy some teas and herbs, right now they might be more expensive but it's worth it.

First she'll have to make a list though, since she already has some things in mind she wouldn't want to forget them, they'll be useful to her in her journey.

Getting a piece of paper she starts writing down her list.

After ten minutes, she places the pen down "finally done!" She says holding the list up in the air like she was expecting some kind of praise, but there was no one there to praise her child-like behavior.

Although a bit disappointed, she calms down after a while. Going to change into more appropriate clothing she stumbles across something she had long forgotten she had.

'A piece of art indeed' she thought as she looked at it,the longer she looked the more the picture came into life, this painting was from her father, he used to be a great artist in the past, he's not here now though...

In the canvas the view of a place in the forest could be seen, it seemed like a paradise, the old trees, the flowers and a deer munching on the fresh green grass, all while the sun was rising.

It was all too realistic, just like she was there inside the painting, watching nature do its magic.

"I should hang that on the wall, it's a shame to leave it here, well, time to go to the market now!" she said and got her bag, exiting the house.

(Author's note: I've been kinda busy lately so that's why this chapter isn't that long, I promise future chapters won't be as short, so please bear with me y'all and thanks for your support)
