2007 Birthday Drabbles
Jay's Birthday 2007: 4. Last Homely House - by Imhiriel
The twins gazed wistfully after Gilraen's retreating figure, wondering whether they would rather not witness her leaving Imladris.
"I will miss her," Elladan murmured, remembering her quiet but steady presence in the household.
Elrohir replied, "I never realised how much she became part of the family. She was more than just mother to Estel. Do you think Naneth would mind?"
No: they knew Celebrían would be grateful Gilraen had found a place in her sons' hearts, helped to ease the hurt of her own departure.
A sudden grin lit both faces. "Without any doubt: a surprise visit is due soon!"
