“We should go in now before we all catch a cold out here” Ben’s father said after locking the car. It was then that she felt the chill, it was a surprise she didn’t even feel it before. Her mum nudged her and they all walked behind Ben’s father who was already walking towards the house.

A nice aroma wafted through her nose immediately Ben’s father opened the door to the house.

“Welcome home Sarah” he said as soon as she stepped in.

“Thank you” she waited for a few seconds hoping to see or feel something that would trigger her memories but nothing happened. Her father was closing the door behind him and she took the time to really look around the room they were in, obviously the sitting room. The walls were painted cream and the curtains had flower prints on them in different shades of cream and brown. On the wall were framed work of abstract art except a particular one with a painting of a wooden cross and a group of people kneeling at the foot of it with their hands clasped and heads bowed. A total of six people, three men and three women. She could only see their backs but she could feel their emotions of total dependence in the way they were bowed. Nice painting. She turned her attention to the couches, there were three of them and a long sofa. The sofa and a couch were coffee brown in color and the other two couches, cream in color to match the theme of the wall and curtains
