The Next Day

Amy Belladonna opened the door to let in a smiling Pyrrha.

"Blake, you have someone here for you!" Amy called into the house, welcoming Pyrrha in as if she was a sister.

"Mrs. Pyrrha!" Blake shouted, running down the hall and hugging Pyrrha's leg with all her strength.

"Watch out Blake, you still need some rest. I was here to check how you were doing and reapply some bandages." Pyrrha said, before motioning to her bag. "I also brought some books for us to read!"

"Yay! Mommy, can you make us some cookies to eat while we read?" Blake said, pulling on Amy's shirt.

"Sure thing Blake, Pyrrha, do you want anything to drink?" Any asked, trying to match Pyrrha's polite nature.

"No thank you, I have a bottle of water with me. Thank you for having me though!" Pyrrha said, a warm smile on her face.

"Let's go!" Blake said, walking down the hall, gesturing for Pyrrha to follow.

"I guess your daughter really likes books!" Pyrrha said, before following Blake into the room, only to be presented a messy room with books everywhere.

"Sorry about the mess, Blake's been scouring through these books finding any she finds interesting." Amy called from the kitchen.

"It's fine, don't worry about it." Pyrrha called in response.

"Can we read this one first?" Blake said, pulling a book called 'The Red Paperclip' out of Pyrrha's backpack.

"That one's a bit too difficult for now, let's try something a bit easier." Pyrrha suggested before turning around to see Blake's frowning face.

"Oh fine, we can read this one first." Pyrrha said, causing Blake's face to light up with joy.
