Excerpt
for Journey to
Her Dreams:
Hollie stared at the sliding door but didn’t dare
to move any closer. So, this was Dublin. She had been glued to the window since
the plane started descending. It didn’t appear all that different from
Tasmania. There were fields upon fields of green paddocks, divided by hedges
and rocks, sometimes in even squares and sometimes, it seemed, just randomly.
She even spotted a few double-decker buses from way above. Overwhelmed by the
thought that she was about to set foot on Irish soil, she hesitated.
“Hollie. What are you waiting for?” Davo was
already outside, but his movement set off the sensor and the door opened in
front of her.
She shrugged. “I don’t know.”
He came back in, took her hand, and led her
outside. “I’ll be there all the way. We’ll find whatever is worrying you. I
promise.”Grateful, she intertwined her fingers with his and slowly followed him outside — onto the streets of Dublin.
She had known Davo, or David Richard as his mother called him whenever he was in trouble. Though she’d never been as close to him as with Alex, he’d always been a part of her life. Whenever his circle of friends grew, hers grew as well. He had always been there for her, but she only realised as she walked through that door how much she had taken him for granted, how much he had always been there, and she never truly appreciated it. In a way she did, but more as a mate than an actual close friend. She turned to him and her lips twitched into a smile as he walked ahead in his old casual track pants and his worn-out T-shirt, which he must have bought at the same rock band concert as Ben.
