437. Her Garden

Mauve walked up the stairs leading to the rooftop with Mill by her side. The vampire held the lamp leading the way. Mill pulled the door open, the door protested against her pull but it was pretty obvious who would win.

Mauve walked through the opened door and Mill followed right behind her. She heard the door close and turned to see Mill didn't close it all the way.

She waited for the vampire to go ahead of her before Mauve carefully followed behind Mill. She couldn't really see much and unfortunately, the moon wasn't on their side tonight.

Mill walked briskly and lit the lamps around, immediately lighting up the entire place. Mauve's eyes brightened as she stared at the garden. It was truly not in terrible shape.

A few bushes needed trimming but it was pretty obvious they had been carefully and carefully watered. She approached the nearest bushes staring at the dying flowers.
