Peachy rushed over to Panda, who lay exhausted on the floor. "Are you alright?" she cried as she took her fallen friend into her arms. Panda coughed and looked up at her. "Yeah, I'm fine. Are you?"
Peachy burst into tears and hugged Panda tight. "I'm so sorry," she bawled. "This is all my fault. I should've listened to you and this never would have happened."
Panda hugged her back. "This is nobody's fault, Peachy. You were only trying to help, and I'm grateful for that. But next time, if I say I can handle something, I can handle it."
Peachy stopped hugging her, and Panda affectionately wiped away her tears. The Cream family ran up to Peachy and hugged her from behind, telling her how happy they were knowing that she was fine. After everybody calmed down a little, Peachy gave her best friend another hug. "I'll be sure to listen to you from now on," she said.
"Promise?" Panda asked.
"Promise." With that, she took Panda's arm. "I'll walk you home," she said happily. And together they walked the streets feeling happier and more alive than they ever had.
