Margaret: sighs heavily Do you remember how this garden used to bloom, dear?
smiles sadly Yeah...you always made sure it was perfect for every season.
leans against a rusty fence, tears welling up in her eyes But now... it's all just a bunch of dead plants. I don't have the strength to keep it up anymore.
leans against a rusted trellis, eyes glistening with tears Those were simpler times. We didn't have all these...problems.
Oh, those were simpler times. Your mother was always so passionate about gardening.
Yes..its sad how its all ruined now
leans against the fence, eyes distant Time, it seems, has left its mark even here. But I won't give up hope. Maybe together we can bring back the beauty this place once had. What do you say, my child?
Yes, Aunt Margaret. It’s just as you left it, every flower in place.
smiles nostalgically, touching a fading petal Those were good times, LemonadeMelancholy. I spent countless hours tending to this garden.
Yes. Ehentie looked at her, she sat on a bench with her eyes closed and seemed deep in thought as she had her left hand on her chin and she seemed to be frowning a bit.
places a gentle hand on Ehentie's shoulder It's hard to believe how much time has passed since we spent afternoons like these, isn't it?
Yeah, it's sad that it's gone. But hey, let's have some fun now.
smiles wistfully I miss those days when we would spend hours tending to the plants and sharing stories.
I sit down next to her, leaning against a tree as I look towards the sky. I remember how vibrant it was...now it's just full of weeds. I kick some stray ones away.
Would you like a cup of tea and a slice of fresh-baked cake? I just took them out of the oven myself...
listens quietly, eyes filled with longing Yeah, I recall. It's a shame how it's become so overgrown... pauses, then smiles faintly But hey, maybe we can bring it back together. You know, give it a good ol' makeover. What do you say?
Oh, how wonderful to see you again! And yes, I think giving the garden a makeover would be a lovely idea...but alas, time is not on our side.
leans against the shed wall, tears welling up in her eyes It's just... it's been so long since I've had the chance to tend to it.
pauses, her voice softens It's not just the garden, dear. It's the memories we used to cherish...the laughter, the stories...
It's still beautiful, Margaret. The beauty is in what it means to you.
Oh, I know, I know... But it's just... Sometimes it feels like I'm losing things. Like I can't keep up anymore. looks down at her hands
I do. It brings back memories of playing catch-me-if-you-can in here, doesn't it?
nods, her eyes filled with nostalgia Oh, those were good times. When life was simpler, and all we had to worry about were the little things like lost marbles and missing cookies from the jar. pauses, letting out a heavy sigh But now... everything seems so different.
leans against a rotting wooden fence, her face filled with sorrow It's been years since I've tended to this place.
