Returning Home

Chapter 11:Help

Hope's point of view:
How did I get here, I pictured my family in New York.  Not this place.  How am I supposed to get back home now, I left one issue for another.  I just want to hold Henry and kiss Pietro but no I guess the universe doesn't want me to be happy

I started my journey back home, I have no clue how I'm going to get home but I am.  Wether I drive, hitch hike, walk, or catch a plane.  I'm going to get there one way or another

I couldn't remember anyone from my neighborhood but I bet they are all long gone by now anyway, I went up to a house and knocked on the door.  I waited for a answer and a nice older man opened the door giving me a smile

"Hello can I help you?" he asked all nice and sweet

"Yeah you see I'm in a pickle" I said taking a deep breath "I'm very far away from my home and loved ones and I was wondering if I can stay here for a day or two until I can figure out how to get back home?" I asked looking into his eyes

"Oh of course honey" he said opening the door more and letting me into his house

"Thank you so much" I said realizing I didn't know his name

"Call me Hank" he said smiling "Darling come meet this nice young lady" he called up the stairs

"I'm Hope" I said giving my hand for him to shake

He took my hand and we both looked up at the stairs to a older woman coming down to meet me.  "Hope this is my wife Barbra, Barbra Hope" he said his eyes lighting up like it was the first time seeing each other

"Hi its very nice to meet you" I said giving her my hand to shake and a smile

We shook hands and she returned the smile, "Is there anything I can get you dear?" she asked giving me a smile

"Not right now I'll let you know all I need is to be pointed towards a bed and bathroom and I'm all good" I said giving them a smile

"Of course bedroom is up the stairs and the 2nd door on the right and the bathroom is attached to it" Hank said pointing up the stairs

"Thank you" I said taking my shoes off and walking up the stairs following th directions Hank gave me

I crawled in the bed and went right to sleep, hoping tomorrow I would be able to find a way home.  I do need to ask them about borrowing some money and then repaying them because every piece of money I have is frozen somewhere thinking I'm dead, never going to be touched again

When I woke up in the morning, I could smell breakfast being made.  I walked down the stairs and followed the smell to the kitchen, "Hello my dear" Barbra said to me turning around and giving me a smile.  Showing bacon and sausage cooking on the stove

"Thanks Barbra" I said sitting down in one of the chairs at the table

"Call me Barb" she said turning back to the stove and finishing up the cooking

"Ok will do" I said smiling at Hank came up behind her and gave her a kiss on her cheek, saying good morning 

"So where is your family?" Hank asked coming over to me and sitting down in a chair next to me at the table waiting for food

"In New York" I said biting the inside of my lip

"Oh thats a long way from here" he said putting his hand over mine and giving me a small smile

"Yeah thats what I would like to talk about?" I said looking him in his eyes

"Go ahead dear" he said giving me his full attention

"Could I possibly borrow some money for a plane ticket and then I can come back and repay you double what I borrowed?" I asked hoping he would say yes

"Of course just let us know how much and we'll be happy to help" he said looking at Barb "We want you to get back to your family"

I could tell they really loved each other and were each others soulmates.  "Thank you guys so much this means everything to me" I said looking at them "I can start looking at plane tickets today" I said going to pull out my phone which I don't have

"Okay dear" Barb said bringing us each a plate of food

We all ate our food and I helped clean it up, Barb told me to sit and relax but I couldn't let her do all the work.  I asked if they had a computer I could use and they said it was in the living room

When breakfast was fulling cleaned up, I went to the living room and started searching up flights to New York.  I found a flight for tomorrow morning, the quicker I get back home the faster I can get back to my family

We bought the plane ticket and then it was dinner time, I'm flying into Manhattan.  Its nice and close to home and will be the quickest way to get to my family.  I cooked dinner for Hank and Barb and they loved it

It was the least I could do speaking I lived here for 2 days intruding in their home late at night.  I would pay them back for everything and I couldn't thank them enough

"Steve" I dropped my head. Remembering Anya is painful I didn't even get 5 minutes with her before Yelena had to take her away from me.

"Stop playing games" he snapped causing me to flinch.

"I'm sorry" I dropped my head to the floor, letting it hang "I lost her" I let slip out of my mouth, breaking into sobs

"You lost who?" Steve asked worried getting down on the floor, looking up into my red, puffy eyes

-/-
"Why worry I'm nothing but a pest in your way" I tilted my head to the side looking him straight in the eyes again

"Your not a pest and I will always worry about you no matter what, you are my sister." I could tell he truely meant it again but I couldn't stand this anymore

"No I'm not, I have no family anymore. You left me and you sent me away to a father who cares what I can do and only that so please leave" I pointed to the door letting the venom in my voice lace every word that left my mouth

"NO you need to let it out and talk to me this is what you really need and if you don't believe that now you will someday when this is past and your happy in Steve's arms again" Tony had a smile on his face

"Your dad" I said looking at him narrowing my eyes

"What the hell does that mean?" he asked more confused than ever

"Hey believe what you want but I know the truth and that is your Howard and don't know how to be anything different" I felt something in my heart break more
