Once she got off the charrouage she ran away like there was no tomorrow. It was the end: the end of her boredom from counting the days. She was going to see Érzsebet again. She missed her a lot.
"Elizabeth!!" She hugs the taller one like that was her sister. "I missed you so much!"
"Oh Guillermine, it was just a year.." She laughs but then pats the other one's head "But yeah, I missed being around with you." She walks with her to explore what to do now "Well, now that we are there, what should we do?"
"We should go to the library or.. hear the songs from those street musicians over there" Érzsebet proposed, not knowing of what her peer will say next. She was looking everywhere until she saw the tree that was around 50 feet tall.
"Or look over there!" She points at the tree that was 20 streets from the town. "Climbing it could be fun!" She smiles at her like it was something from the daily life.
"Uh.. What if we fall down? Looks dangerous!" She was scared and trying not to laugh from the nerves.
"Come on, We'll be ok! Count on me, Elizabeth" They both lock one arm to another as the british girl smiles.
She gives up. "Sigh.. Fine, I'll trust you Mina, let's get goi-"
"THAT'S THE SPIRIT! COME ON!" They run together, laughing.
25 minutes later..
"Wow.." The magyar noble says in awe of how big that tree looked like in comparison to her 146cm and the 154cm of her friend. "That could even get to the night sky, don't you think?"
"Absolutely! anyways, Let's climb it! Who goes first?"
"You go!"
"No, you go" Érzsebet replies. But she had an idea.
"Alright.. let's decide it this way: whoever blinks, climbs the tree first. Got it?"
"Ok.. let's do it" She responds in a challenging, low tone.
After four minutes, the hungarian blinked. She had no other choice than climbing it.
"How much do we have to climb, Mina?" She says a little bit afraid.
"Let's go to the top, shall we?" The girl answers her friend. However, the wind was starting to get stronger little by little, despite of the ups and downs of it.
"We're closer!" Érzsebet screams in excitement. She really wanted to see what did the village look from afar.
A minute later, they did it to the top. It was a charming view to see. But the tree started to shake more from the wind.
"Guillermine I'm scared, we should get dow-.." She tried to climb down but did a bad movement causing her to slip from the tree "AAAAAAAAH!"
"ELIZABETH WAIT FOR ME!" The girl started climbing down as fast as she could to save her.
"Hold me ancestors.." The girl says to herself, closing her eyes but..
Sike! She thought she had died, but no. Luckily, there were bushes around the place, so she just had scratches and bruises on her face because of the fall and the branches on the plants she had fallen on.
"Elizabeth! Are you alright!? Did you get a sprained ligament? Is your spine broken?"
"I'm ok.. I think I'm going to get a lot of punishments after this but.. I-it was fun" She fixes her hair and dress.
"Ok, want to go to the library now? We've got a lot of days before I come back home."
