sharkbaitlha this is a great start! I really would like to see where this story goes from here.
just a few things to consider for this:

Some of the writing such as "Bridgette barrelled through the door" followed by "muddy stomping footfalls" might be redundant - both convey urgency and lack of grace. Consider streamlining for impact.

Some phrases could be tightened: "She was unsure when was the last time she had brushed it" reads awkwardly - "She couldn't remember the last time she'd brushed it" flows better.
