"She needs to have an education, Josh!" "She needs to make it to Christmas alive! She's coughing out more blood than she can take!" The man pinched the arch of his nose. "She needs to make friends. To be a kid." The mother argued, "She needs to be a living kid. You saw what that virus did to your mother- how can you be so-"

'Ring'

A chime fell through Y/n's tiny body. She had heard this sound before. She was much younger then, much too small to remember. She walked away from the cracked door of the family room, away from the loud voices banging around in her ears.

Someone was calling her. The little 7 year old was more than happy to respond. She crawled up her bed, covered in red soaked tissues. Until she found her window, it was open. That's what had caused this fight of the week. Her mother had opened the window, and her father had freaked out. He had said there were just too many germs out there for Y/n's fragile body. They had gotten so caught up in arguing that no one had actually closed the window before they ran off.

'Ring'

There it was again. Y/n was ready this time. She sat there, criss crossed and ready for the man to speak again.

"Y/n, mind your hands! 你比较清楚! 'You know better!' " She scolded the girl, holding her pan on the grill. "It's not that sharp, don't worry." The teen pounded another wrap of flour into the bowl. Shi shook her head, "I must get that edge fixed! Or.. Maybe some bubble wrap." She frowned, "I can wrap it for you." Y/n smiled up at the woman. That rip in the wooden shelf had been bothering Shi for weeks. "I don't want you cutting yourself on it.." "I'll be super- careful. I'll wrap my hands before I do it." Shi smiled back, "How will you wrap it then 兔子? 'Rabbit?' " "I'll use my teeth then." Y/n told her, pounding with the mortar again. Shi hummed with a light laughter, before the back door opened. "欢迎回家，我亲爱的。'Welcome home, my beloved." She greeted her wife, quickly holding her as she entered the room.

Y/n smiled, before turning back to the dough she was pounding. As the two finished their embrace, Lian turned to the teen."Y/n, ah- are you two making rabbit cakes? The festival isn't for weeks." Shi patted the little chef's shoulder, wiping some flour from her face. "She wouldn't let me make a single rice cake without adding Jade." Lian smirked, "Don't tell me it doesn't taste better with little rabbit ears and a sniffer." The two women laughed, "We'll be all the more prepared for the festival anyhow." Shi pressed the bit of flour in her hands into Y/n's nose. "You do look tastier with a sniffer." Y/n tried to kick the white off, Shi laughed again. Wetting her hand to wipe the flour off.

"I was gonna make it there eventually." Shi shook her head, "Of course you were." "Wash up. We can save the pounding for tomorrow." She knew Y/n would show up at her doorstep the next day to help out again, As she always did. Y/n blew a raspberry. "Fine. I'll wash the dishes. I can cover the rip before I go." Shi took the now empty bowl from Y/n's hands. "I'll wash the dishes, love. You go get the wrap." "Fine fine- I'll be back!"

Y/n took it upon herself to take out the trash as she left. The two waved as she walked down the street. Her house was a few blocks away, just out of the local square.

'Ring'

"Hello. You're in your final phase today. What's the occasion?" She stared up at the moon, walking through the many construction sites of the neighborhood. She balanced up on the beams before pounding down, "You got all poshed up for me?" Y/n giggled, "Alright you gotta tell me how Cupid found those guys!"

To most- she was talking to no one. She probably looked crazy. But to her- it was her best friend, Manny. They talked every night, sometimes until the light of dawn. Manny usually tried to coo the girl off to sleep early, but Y/n never let that happen anymore. A teenager was much harder to coddle to sleep than the 7 year old she used to be.
