"Thank you so much!" Snow White grabs me.

" I uh... was worried they wouldn't be enough." I say.

"Merlin! These are perfect." She smiles.

"You like them that much?" I ask.

She kisses my cheek.

"Yeah. I really do." She smiles.

I pull my hair back. She places them inside a vase.

"I got you something for you as well." She turns.

"Really? You didn't have to." I say.

She hands me a flyer. I look at it and my heart sinks.

"I bought tickets for a festival!" She smiles.

"Oh... the End of the Demon War." I say with gritted teeth.

"I've never heard about the demon war." She tucks her hair back.

I have. All too well.

"Well... it's very gory and loud. I don't think we should go." I say.

She takes my hand.

"I can handle it. It reminds me of the stories Regina told me." She says.

"I... don't know." I say.

"Pleeeeaaase! This is my first festival." She pleads.

Please don't make me go. Please don't make me relive. I let out a breath. But...

"Alright. Fine." I sigh.

This night will be like that day. A nightmare.

"Thank you!" She hugs me.
