Chapter 70 Seren

• The moment I had focused my mind, and wiped my eyes, I took a deep breath, standing from my space upon the floor. This had to be a chance to move forward. I now knew what it was that I wanted. The hopes I had clung to were discarded as they should have been in the beginning. There were no hopes when it came to Lachlan Lamont.
• I made my way to my bed, kneeling down upon the floor there, sliding out the storage boxes that sat underneath it, so they were now in front of me. I found myself yawning, as I stretched. I was beyond tired, unsurprisingly so considering the very little sleep I had received last night, but in this moment I was on a mission. Sleep could wait a moment longer. There were things that I needed to do, and I was going to do them.
• I lifted the lid from the first box, rummaging for the memory box that I sought. Realising it was not in this box, I pushed the box to the side, and reached for another. Quickly finding the pale blue gift box quickly within the second storage box I had opened. A memory box filled with special things relating to my Dad. So many things that I held dear to me. Things that made me smile each time I held them within my hand and fond memories flooded back to me of the times I had shared with my father. Times of happiness and fun. Love and laughter within a happy home I was blessed to have grown up in thanks to my Mum and my Dad.
