(( 💕 for Annie reuniting with her mom? ))
It had been some months since disaster upon disaster had fallen Annette. First Garreg Mach had fallen and then they had failed to rescue the prince. It was a set of blows that were telling on the girl.
Knowing what it was like to have no news of a loved one’s death, Annette had finally determined to stay in Fhiirdad in her uncle’s house. Her mother needed to know and perhaps Annette needed the strength of her mother to heal.
Pushing open the door, she peered into the house. “Hello?” She called out. “Mother?”
“Annette?” A woman not much taller than her daughter emerged, her blonde hair tied up in a severe knot. She stared at the girl as if she wasn’t expecting to see her. “You’re here...”
Annette beamed and raced forward to catch her mother in one of her enthusiastic hugs, her eyes wet with tears. “I’m here, Mother. Really. To stay.”
