Melena waited calmly behind the woman; she had visited the herb shop a few times for things to help her in various classes, but it was only recently that she’d noticed how alike the woman was to the photo she had of her Mama.

“Please, I just need a name,”

       ” And I am sure you will find it, somewhere else. We’re closing now. ”

{ ☽o☾ }: Stubbornly the old woman lifted her eyes from the counter to the young girl, she looked somehow.. familiar, in a way Elphaba couldn’t quite put the finger on. But with so many faces coming and going in her shop, it was hardly surprising, and she quickly placed the feeling in the back of her mind. 

       ” Look, girl, there is a big storm coming this way. You wouldn’t want to find yourself outside the comfort of your home when it hits. ”

{ ☽o☾ }: She said, as she started making her way around the counter to show the girl to the door. She didn’t need questions, even less now. After all, she was busy. She pointed out to the dark clouds forming in the sky outside the vitrine glass.

       “ See? Just go now, child. And you may just make home in time. ”

Melena smiled as she saw the woman’s face. 

"My home is near enough ma’am you need not worry about me.” She said softly. For a moment she hesitated unsure of how to go about her questioning. “…Are you Elphaba?”

{ ☽o☾ }: Her entire body stiffened at the mention of her name. It took her a second to recompose herself. No one asked for her, no one knew her and most importantly no one cared, not in a very long time. And she wasn’t ready to face this time right now.

                “ I’m afraid.. I’m not who you seek, child. ”

 { ☽o☾ }: She hushed the girl outside, thousands of questions starting bubbling in her mind, but she dare not voice any of them, she had been through much too erase herself, lost too much. She wasn’t going back now. 

             “ Listen, girl, I don’t know where you heard this name. But you might as well stop meddling with things you know nothing about, it’ll bring you no good.

               So just go now, and leave me be. Please.”
