It was time for Hannah Delaney to do what she’d promised herself
exactly one year ago. No, she was not getting a new hair colour, joining
the gym, taking up embroidery, or getting a tattoo. She was leaving Tarrin’s
Bay—for good.
She’d tried. She’d persisted. She’d waited. But things were exactly the
same one year on, though the pain of the breakup was less now. When her
friends (and boyfriend) had moved on to greater, grander places, with bright
lights and hustle and bustle, she had stayed put, like she always did. Kept
busy, like she always did. And looked after everyone else’s needs before her
own, like she always did. But if things were to change, and she was to
experience her full potential, she had to change. Starting now. June the first.
Hannah called her friend in Sydney to confirm acceptance of her offer,
then made a quick call to the real-estate agent to book an appointment,
before stepping out onto the wide, north-west facing verandah. She
breathed in the rich, lush air, both salty and sweet from the combination of
ocean and farmland. It awakened her airways, nourished her lungs, and
comforted her soul.
The only bright lights she really craved were those of
the morning sun reaching through the trees towards the land, and the moon
lighting up a clear night sky. And the only hustle and bustle she loved was
the hurried but seemingly aimless wanderings of the chickens around her
feet when she tended to them. She loved the coastal farm she’d grown up on
that was now her own. But as much as home held a place in her heart, it
also held her back from moving forward… to discovering life for herself,
not one that was expected of her, or that she felt obligated to continue
living.
‘Eight years,’ Hannah said with a sigh. She stepped off the verandah and
onto the slightly overgrown grass she hadn’t gotten around to mowing.
Despite the natural slowdown of winter, the soil was rich, and the grass had
always been healthy and full of life. She crouched and threaded her fingers
between the crisp, cool strands. ‘Eight years of doing this on my own…
mostly.’ She glanced backwards at Scarlett, her border collie who was
comfortably flopped in her favourite spot on the weathered verandah,
beside the white wicker armchair, eyes squinting in the low afternoon sun.
Hannah stepped onto the verandah and crouched again, this time in front of
Scarlett, threading her fingers between the orangey-red and white strands of
hair. ‘Having a nice rest, Scar?’ She stroked the top of her dog’s head, a
slight waxiness gliding onto her palm. ‘How about a pampering bath
tomorrow, huh?’ She tickled behind the animal’s ears. ‘Maybe even with
extra bubbles.’
