@leerielit liked the call for mary poppins.
mary knew her time was coming. the banks family had disappeared into the crowd half a minute ago, and she stood looking at the trees: the pinks and greens that blossomed on their branches. the cherry trees had finally opened to michael and his family. their home was safe. and yet she stood, her carpetbag settled at her feet, her umbrella clutched in both hands, her gloved thumb running across the handle. out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone approaching. she knew, as she always did, who it was. after all she had been waiting for him. with a twinkle in her eye, she turned to face jack. ❝ hello, jack. i see you’ve come to enjoy the festivities. let me stop you a moment. ❞
