This little teaser is when Hollie arrives in Dublin after a long flight. I hope you enjoy the little paragraph.
Hollie stared at the sliding door, but didn't dare to move any
closer. So this is Dublin! She had been glued to the window since the plane started descending. It didn't appear all that different from Tasmania – there were fields upon fields of green paddocks,
divided by hedges and rocks – sometimes in even squares and
sometimes, it seemed, just randomly. She even spotted a few
double-decker buses from way above. Hollie was
overwhelmed by the thought that she was about to set foot on Irish
soil.
"Hollie! What are you waiting for?" Davo was
already outside, but his movement set off the sensor and the door
opened in front of her.
She shrugged. "I don't know."
Davo came back in, took her hand, and led her outside. "I'll be there all the way. We'll find whatever worries you. I promise!"
Gratefully, she intertwined her fingers with his and slowly followed him outside – onto the streets of Dublin.
