I missed Hump Day Hook on the first Wednesday of the year but here I am, again back, with a new part of Attic Mirror. Find the other writers here.
If you miss my other hooks, they can all be found here.
Attic Mirror is available as a kindle on amazon here and as a pdf on Etsy here and in a lot of format on smashwords here.
This time we start on Chapter 2 and Hitomi is back from the attic... she looks a bit, dusty.
“When she walked out of
the attics, the house seemed really quiet, everybody was in
the kitchen for diner and she was already late. They all looked at
her when she entered the kitchen and started to laugh. She hadn't
realized how dirty she was before they made her notice. She promised
herself to start cleaning the attics the next day if she didn't want
to end up like that all the time. She had decided to spend all her
time here now and was really excited about meeting with Demian again.
It was way funnier than the training she had been doing so far by
observing people in the street, there was something recurrent about
them and Demian was so full of novelty. She had to go wash herself
before being allowed to eat. She wasn't really hungry. She was
thinking too much about what was going to happen the next morning to
be able to notice if she was hungry or not. She ate what was in her
plate without even noticing it. She had so many questions about
Teneria that she was thinking about writing them all down. It was
really strange to think that a completely different world could be so
close, in your own house. She couldn't find any explanations to it.
If she liked science better or asked Ethan about it he would probably
figure out how it was possible. But she didn't really care. All she
knew was that Demian was there and real and that she had never had
that much fun in her entire life.
“You're strange
tonight”, Elian said.
“She is thinking
obviously”, Elios, his twin brother answered.
They were almost
indistinguishable, Elios's hair was just a little bit darker but in
the sun nobody would notice.
“Yes, I'm thinking”,
Hitomi answered.
“About what?” Elian
asked again.
“Are you going to tell
us a new story soon?” Elios said.”
