Some crazy lady stabbed me in the park.
Aphrodite was furious as she packed clothes into a bag for Rhode. Rhode considered herself a daughter of Amphitrite but that wasn't how Aphrodite saw it. Rhode was her daughter, stories saying that she was fathered Poseidon as well as born of Aphrodite alone. And Aphrodite remembered it. She remembered giving birth to Rhode, she remembered raising her. Rhode was hers and it was offensive - and, yes, sometimes painful - that Rhode called another woman 'mother'.
But Rhode had called Aphrodite. Aphrodite chose to think that this had been her daughter's first choice as she called a taxi to take her there. Someone had hurt her child and Aphrodite would tear down everything to protect her.
At the hospital Aphrodite demanded to be told where Rhode was. She didn't wait to be led there, finding it herself and then sweeping into the room. "My darling Rhode!" Aphrodite said upon seeing her, rushing to her bedside, all long dark locks, crimson lips, and plunging neckline.
