Lara finished writing in her journal, closed it and set it aside. She finished getting dressed as she just got out of the shower. She went down stairs hoping to find her aunts to suprise her with birthday gifts.

"Hello????" she called out but got no response. Lara walked round the whole cabin wishing to find any one of her aunts.

She went outside to the garden but found not one of them. She ran back into the house and grabbed her jacket and set out to the City hoping to find them there.

When Lara arrivied to the City it was everything she ever dreamed of! There were people on the streets walking, laughing and smiling. There were food stands on the side of the streets too! And there were extremely tall building that could fit a whole elephant in them! Maybe thousands!

"WoooooooW!" she said out of excited ment. Right as she was about to take a step forward she heard an 'ahem' from behind her. She turned around to find her aunts standing behind her with their arms crossed.

"What do you think you're doing outside of the cabin young lady?" Her aunt Fauna said to her not breaking eye contact with a serious look on her face and tapping her foot.

"Well I was ju-" she was cut off, "Just looking for us because you were worried?" Aunt Merriweather said stepping closer to her looking straight into Laras hazel eyes.

"Y-yes..." lowering her head as if trying to avoid their gaze. They all started walking back to the cabin they sent Lara to her room and told her not to come out until she learned her lesson for leaving the house without telling anyone. But when she entered her room she was greeted with a beautiful white dress. She screamed out of happiness and tears of joy rolled down her face. She ran down stairs ans hugged her aunts.

"Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!!!!!" She hugged them and jumoed up and down with joy. She let them go and looked at all of them, "I'm so sorry for leaving it was just that I was worried that something bad happened to you guys! I looked everywhere and couldn't find you guys anywhere! So I went to the City hoping I would find you guys there!"

Her aunt Flora wiped the tears from her face and patted her back, "It's okay Lara you went searching for us because you were worried. And thats okay!" she hugged Lara out of comfort.
