EMBER WHISTLED AS SHE moved through her room gracefully, almost like a feather as she tossed some stuff she was getting rid of into a box while whistling a happy tune. She froze at the sight of a young picture of her with her Azura books, but swiped it off her dresser and onto the box.
She cracked her neck and sighed happily. "That's more like it." She smiled, lifting the box and passing her mirror. Her long hair was down, and a section of it was tied back into a small bun with a blue ribbon. She tucked a lock of hair back into place, smiling at herself before heading outside to Alessia and Matteo.
"What's that box for, sis?" Matteo asked, voice cracking as he skipped over, tugged her arm down to look inside. Alessia turned away from her car and walked over to see what her daughter was carrying.
"I just... I wanted to clean up a little." Ember gave them a nervous tight-lipped smile.
"Even this? You loved putting these origami flowers and butterflies all over the house, Piccola." Alessia teased, picking up two of said objects, pushing them against Ember's face.
"Well, camp taught me a lot, Mom." Ember took the folded paper out of her Mom's hands, placing them. "I want to make a fresh start. Luz and I both agreed on that."
Alessia stayed quiet for a moment, and when Ember turned around and made eye contact, she jumped. "Yes, yeah." Alessia chuckled sheepishly, before frowning, concerned. A squeaking came from the woods, and the family ran into the forest to check what it was.
Upon seeing a small bunny stuck in a trap, Alessia pulled out the gloves from her pocket that she kept on her from her job at the hospital.
"Matteo, go get the pliers!" Alessia instructed her son, pointing back towards the house. She pulled on the gloves and gently reached out taking the pliers that Matteo handed to Ember who handed them to her. She snips the wire off of its leg, and it shakes its leg before hopping off.
Matteo raised a brow and scratched his cheek. "Em told me dad had a bunny... do think the reason so many bunnies are caught in the trap is that he's coming back?" He, in all his gap-toothed glory, grinned widely, his two front teeth missing.
