"They say that we're out of control and some say we're sinners, but don't let them ruin our beautiful rhythms,"
"Tedros and Alejandro told me everything," Professor Dovey had them seated in a comfortable room. "Am I in trouble?" Agatha asked as Aanya looked away from Professor Dovey. "You would be if anyone else knew that you both interfered in the trial, did you trust your friend? I thought you believed that Sophie was truly good" Professor Dovey said to Agatha.
"I don't- - I don't believe that anyone is truly good or truly evil but I know that Sophie wants to be good. . . that should be good enough." She said as Professor Dovey smiled. The Professor turned to Aanya and smiled at her. "Tedros said that you saved his life, it takes a good deal of magic to stop a reaper. The feelings you have for him must be quite strong," She laughed at the professor who asked her if she told Tedros about her feelings for him. "He's aware of my feelings for him but it's just from my past experiences I know that feelings just complicate things," Aanya answered and got up walking around the room as the professor turned her attention to Agatha.
"And your emotions must have been strong for you to save Alejandro," Agatha looked away from them. "Of course not, feelings just complicate things," She repeated Aanya's words. "Perhaps he shares those feelings," It seemed that the professor liked this conversation and knew that there was something blossoming between both couples.
Agatha got up and walked away from the window. "Trust me, he doesn't" As far as Aanya knew about Alejandro and Agatha there was something going on between the two of them that neither seemed to acknowledge. "Oh," Agatha looked annoyed by the professor's lack of advice. "Come on, I'm not beautiful," Agatha gestured to herself as the professor stood up.
"Odd, Cinderella said the same thing to me and all she really needed was a clean dress and a nice pair of shoes." Aanya could imagine the professor as a fairy godmother but she never knew that Agatha felt this way. "Cinderella, wait, maybe you're....." Aanya watched the professor use her magic to transform herself into her fairy godmother outfit. "The most wished for fairy godmother in the endless woods, at your service my dears," She bowed to the two girls.
"Don't judge, these sleeves were in fashion back then,"
"So, you can make me beautiful? Beautiful enough to be loved?" The question almost broke Aanya's heart as she remembered the Goddess Aphrodite and how she was often overlooked for her power of love. "Close your eyes," Aanya stepped away from Agatha as professor Dovey did her magic.
"Make this one the loveliest of them all," The spell was done as Agatha opened her eyes, the girl looked the same as she rushed to the mirror. "You didn't change anything?" Agatha asked softly. "No, you did. . .look at you, that glow in your eyes and that face, you are beautiful. That smile and to think you failed at it when you first arrived here,"
"When does the spell wear off?"
"My dear, there is no spell. True beauty comes from being happy with who you truly are, you've been beautiful all along and you just had to believe it." Agatha sniffed at the professor's words. "What's wrong?"
"I just — I miss Sophie," The professor pulled the girl into a hug. "I know you do," Aanya watched the sweet moment feeling out of place. "Beauty isn't measured by how we look, Agatha," The two pulled Aanya into the hug as they laughed at the sweet moment.
They pulled apart as Agatha gave Aanya a look. "Now, tell me all about you and Tedros," Professor Dovey clapped her hands and gestured for them to sit down.
