<span class="mu-s">V</span>ery strictly speaking, Emma Imeredala is not a practical person. Not everyone is, and not everyone can be, yet we expect everyone to, at some point, be able to handle handiwork and household chores consistently. This is what we know as being mature.
As the storm of movement around her dazzles Emma, caused by the whole family moving things here and there (sometimes the same things back and forth), the quiet teenager doesn’t feel mature. Yet she is. In her own quirky way, she brings something to the table that everyone seems to believe is an inherent attribute in all other humans.
Empathy.
The mystery word. ‘To put yourself in someone else’s shoes’ is how many will see it defined over their journey, repeatedly. A word often tossed here and there, hardly ever dissected, studied, or questioned- because to define it would be to question the nature of humanity.
>Try and remember any mementos she has of them, either in this house or in any hideaways their team had during their time. Something so that they aren't forgotten.
Emma doesn’t need to do that, though. Even if she isn’t capable of defining such a concept herself. Athletes hardly ever have degrees in Mathematical Physics, yet they embody the concepts of these disciplines daily and to extreme heights. To Emma, wondering how her friends felt back then is second nature, a curse even. Wandering out of the kitchen, bumping into her father, uncle, actual little sister, and Clara on the way out, she sets off to find something that could help her memory.
Of them.
The rest of the massive house suddenly feels eerie, like a graveyard. And having some of the lights off doesn’t help at all. Part of her wished she remained back there, part of her wanted to see her friends in her head, but maybe the biggest part of Emma was getting dizzy because her family is too big and there’s only so much noise she can bear at any given time.
But back then, it was quiet enough.
