Living doll - Emily

[Emily (DELETED 3124)]

Emily, that was what she was called. Her eyes were strange, a pale blue that threatened something, a haunted look became her solemn face, pale and delicate. Her hair was perfect and dark as night. She seldom walks in public, taking to the streets alone at night, where it was quiet and sometimes safe. Twilight was her favourite time in the day, where the magic seemed stronger. Things were waking, sleeping, alive and dead all at the same time. Her eyelashes were her most striking feature, they were naturally long, at the bottom curled slightly. She was nicknamed 'The living doll' and she truly was, until the city went silent.

There was a meadow and Emily sat peacefully amongst the flowers and openly admiring the world around her. A short time afterward she sat silently, motionless, her eyes shut. She feels a tug at her dress. Slowly, she opens her eyes and sees a young pigtailed toddler alone. Emily did not allow a look of concern and allowed the child an audience, as the child continued, thumb in mouth, examining her. Emily had a dress that was decorated with many ribbons, many layers and the child was fiddling, messing with the more fancier of the ribbons.

"Oh!" said the child "Wonder what your name is, dolly!"

The child began to ruffle through the many layers of Emily’s dress, trying to search for the label that contained her name, much like the child’s dolls at home. After moments of searching, the child finally happens upon the prized label. It had calligraphed into it ‘Emily’.

"Em...Emily!" said the child looking pleased with herself.

Emily allowed herself a small smile. She heard a sound that caused concern. Her mother had noticed the child's absence and was understandably worried. Quickly she grows to her full size, taking the child in her arms. Quickly she located the mother who was worried but was concerned more by the stranger holding her child.

"Mummy!" the child gleefully cooed after Emily places her in her mother's arms.

"Do take care of her. It is dangerous here and not a place for a child to be alone" Emily smiled and then left quite quickly afterward. She had no desire to hang around making neither conversation nor excuses for having been in the meadow. Another day interrupted.
