83 days
I arrived at her house again for the fourth and final time that week waiting by her gate for her to come out
We had built up a small routine of me walking her to school in silence
I do it for the small smile I get to see after we depart from one another once we reach school
That small smile used to be so big
That small smile used to show more than once a day
That small smile used to light up the whole room
That small smile used to be accompanied with a little giggle or laugh
I know that I can make her happy now
Or just not as sad
She opened the front door with her only spare hand everything else full: books in hands and keys in mouth
She dropped it all out side by accident so I rushed to help her
"DON'T!" She spoke again
She said something
Something other than thanks
She was starting to open up
Even if it was just to me it was a start
A start to help her recover
A start to make her happy again
A start to make me happy again
