Hansella and Gretel (Part 2- feat. Grandmother Willow)

Dear Reader,

         Did I leave you hanging on that cliff for a while or what? I'm a fan of the cliff-hanger. I hope I didn't scare you all too badly. You ready to find out what happened to Hansella and Gretel?
         When we left them the young ladies were desperate to escape before the Hostess could return. Their brothers' friend, who was a Russian spy helped them come up with a professional extraction plan. The Russian Spy used his network of safe houses to help the girls find a safe and secure place to live with a kind Lithuanian woman name Grandmother Willow. But in order to escape the Hostess’s house, Hansella and Gretel had to move quickly. They packed up all their things in about half an hour and rushed out the door. They packed all of their belongings into their Bulgarian friend's car and rushed out of the village to Grandmother Willow's.
          When they arrived at Grandmother Willow's she showed them up to the apartment upstairs. The view was beautiful. The window from Hansella's room over looked a marigold field and up the street was a lovely church steeple. They were so relieved to be safe.

          Unfortunately for the sisters, the apartment was very old, messy, and dirty. But they hardly minded. Grandmother Willow had rescued them from the Hostess.  She hadn't had time to clean up because Hansella and Gretel had to come in such a rush. But Grandmother Willow was kind. She had pet bunnies and she cooked dinner for the hungry and weary Hansella and Gretel. She told them that they would be here alone for a while because she had to go to the Czech Republic as part of her spy work, but the girls were so grateful that they had a new place to stay.

       The girls went into town the next day and bought cleaning supplies. And because they were good hearted young ladies they even went back to the Hostess' house to make sure everything was clean and in tip top shape. They left money for the Hostess and returned to their new home.
        Today Hansella and Gretel cleaned the apartment from top to bottom and really spruced up the place and brightened it. They were exhausted after they finished cleaning and they still hadn't even done the bathroom yet. But they were quite satisfied with their new home and their new host, their adopted doting Grandmother Willow the Lithuanian spy.
         From that day forward Hansella and Gretel were free to live their adventuring dreams, free of the Hostess and on to bigger and better things. And lets hope they continue to live happily ever after. The End. I hope you liked my story.

     Love Always,
          The Wanderess
