Lately, Zach's mother had been very busy attending various research seminars, treating animals, and conducting research. She often traveled to London. One day at the end of August, Zach's mother planned to attend a research seminar in London again. Zach sent an owl to Cicely's house in London to ask if he could visit her, and she agreed. They made an appointment to meet on the day when Zach's mother would be in London. Zach followed his mother to London while his three siblings stayed at their grandmother's house.

They traveled for two hours and fifty minutes, from the green rural roads in Swanton Morley to the urban roads in London. Zach took out the letter he received from Cicely and looked at the address and description of her house. They entered an elite residential area where all the houses looked luxurious and spacious. Their car stopped at a white-painted house with a black gate that looked elegant. The windows were neat and let sunlight shine into the house. Some green plants adorned the house. "Are you sure this is her house?" Zach's mother asked. Zach nodded in agreement. "Let's get out."

Zach tried to convince his mother that she didn't need to get out since the seminar would start soon "Eh? Mom, you don't need to get out. The seminar will start soon. I'll be fine," Zach tried to convince his mother but she wanted to talk to Cicely's parents for a moment. Zach reminded his mother that he would be late if she didn't leave soon. But she insisted to greet them.

They got out of the car. "Now, I just need to press the doorbell," Zach said to himself, then pressed Cicely's doorbell.

Cicely was super excited. Her best friend, Zach was to arrive to her house today, they had exchanged owls over the holidays and Zach had asked to visit her. She was very excited. She never had a friend over before, as she never had the opportunities. She accepted right away and gave him the address before confronting her parents over Tea. Her mother was quite concerned as she thought that Zach would distract her from her studies but she reassured her mother, who grudgingly agreed. Her stepfather had no worries, as he was flying out of town that week. She was nervous for his arrival and made sure the house was tidy before he arrived. She was in the middle of arranging her bed when she realised that Zach would have wanted her to show him how to make her infamous soup. She hurried towards the kitchen and set up everything ready for his arrival.

Her mother was upstairs in her study, disapproving the whole morning that cicely wasted by preparing her friend’s arrival. Cicely could hardly wait. She decided to pass time by making some tea and reading in the back garden. It was quite peaceful. She stayed like that for a bit until she heard tires over the gravel. She immediately hopped up and made two cups of tea and biscuits for the guests. She heard blurred muffles through the glass and heard footsteps approach the front door. She shivered with excitement and walked towards the door. Her mother began walking down the stairs, in a cream draping dress with golden touches, eager to meet her friend.

She opened the door, with a big smile as she greeted her friend. “Hey Zach!!!” she smiled, before turning to his mother and gave a bow. “Hello Mrs. Zaphiere! Thank you for coming!” she greeted them warmly. Her mother raised an eyebrow and gave a small smile. “Welcome to our humble abode. Please, do make yourselves at home. Nice to meet you both.” cicely cringed at her mother’s words before her eyes shined. “I made some tea and biscuits, why don’t you settle down in the lounge and I can bring them to you?” she suggested.

"Hi! So you're Cicely. Zach told me about you. Nice to meet you," Yarnitia said to Cicely with warm smile. But not long after that, Cicely's mother greet them. "Thank you so much, Mrs. Woods. Nice to meet you you too. I am sorry for bothering you with our arrival. I hope Zach will not make any problem here. Actually, I wanna have a nice talk with you but I have a research seminar to attend in a short time. So maybe I'll leave now," Yarnitia said. "I'd love to eat your cookies, sweetheart. But I'm so sorry because I can't this time. Maybe later when we have more free time," She said to Cicely. Zach's mother continued to said goodbye to them. Before she left, she talked to Zach, "Don't take this smartwatch off. If there's anything, call me immediately. I'll pick you up when the seminar is over," Yarnitia said. Zach nodded and his mother stroked his hair and smiled at him, saying, "Have fun." She said good bye again and then she left with her car.

"Hello, Mrs. Woods. I-I am Zach. Nice to meet you," Zach said to Cicely's mom shortly after his mother left. Actually he was a little bit scared. It was his first time visiting his friend's house. "You make cookies? Th-that's cool!" Zach said to Cicely.

Cicely smiled happily as Zach’s mother greeted her. She liked his mother, she seemed so gentle and kind. Her mother was nodding as Zach’ mother spoke, a small smile set upon her lips. “No problem at all, I’m sure we can always catch up at another time, perhaps we could go out for some tea.” cicely rolled her eyes at her mother, she wished that her mother could speak less formally, but she was always serious. Her mother gave a glance at Zach. “And I’ve heard that Zach is quite the scholar.” she glanced at cicely. “unlike cicely, she has to practice more.” cicely gave a soft sigh as she waited for her mother to finish speaking. “But of course, you must get going. Have a good day.” she said to Zach’s mother, dipping her head.

Cicely watched as Zach’s mother left, watching the car slowly roll away. She turned back to Zach with a nervous smile. He seemed shy.. or nervous around her mother, which she couldn’t blame him for that. Her mother was scary sometimes. Her mother turned to him as he greeted her, mumbling. “Ah yes. Nice to meet you too.” cicely glanced at the cookies on the table. When were they going to go? “I’m afraid that I had work to do now. You two can help yourselves to the kitchen.” with that, she walked up the stairs. Cicely then turned to Zach, her face sparkling. “how’s your journey? Follow me! I’ll show you the cookies!”

They arrived to a lounge like place, filled with warm lights and smooth carpets. The shelves surrounded the place, stocked with books and pots of plants stood. Three big sofas stretched across the room and a coffee table filled with plates of cookies sat. The TV stared at them from a side and a huge window looked out towards the street. Cicely picked a cookie up, it’s chocolate chips dotted around and handed it to Zach. “Here you go!” she smiles.

Zach followed Cicely from behind. He looked inside the house and could not help but to be amazed. Her house was really big and clean. The white wall and all of the furnitures showed elegance. Compared to his house in Swanton Morley, it actually also spacious but more simple and farm-like.

He kept following Cicely until they arrived at the lounge. There are lights that were giving a warm atmosphere. There was also a smooth carpets. When looking at the room, Zach found a shelves that surrounded the lounge with stocked books and many pots of plant. There are three big sofas the and a coffee table that filled with cookies that he sured it was Cicely's handmade cookies. The huge window make the room brighter, giving the sunlight permission to enter. "Your mother seemed so busy. Well, my mother also a busy person. She is a veterinarian and these times, she is doing many researches, sometimes gives lectures in the university near my house." Cicely take the plates to hand it to Zach. "Ah, thank you, Cicely." Zach took one. It was a brown cookie with choco chips dotted around.

"I love your house. It is so neat and elegant," said Zach. It was really his honest complimentary. "Are you the only child or do you have any brother or sister maybe?" Zach took a bite of the cookies in his hand. Before Zach heard the words from Cicely, his mind force his mind to blurt out, "This cookie is sooo yummy! Do you make it alone? How can you do it? You must be very talented at baking," Zach stopped for a bit, "and cooking!" But he realized something, "Ah, my bad! I should wait for your response first. But your cookies really is delicious," said Zach.
