Esther & Open
Esther had just picked up her nieces at school and had decided to treat them each to a cupcake at Baxter Bakery since they’d liked the cupcakes so much that she’d gotten before. Things had been going fairly well around their house; Esther was slowly beginning to talk to more people on Valarnet and hadn’t had anymore of those strange dreams, although she kind of wished she would have more. Her nieces were doing well in school and her brother-in-law was doing well at his job as well as making time for the girls. Esther just wished that her sister was getting better so that she could come home. She was doing a little better than she had in Virginia, but not as well as they would have liked. So, until she was well enough Esther and her brother-in-law were doing the best they could.
After buying them each a cupcake, Esther led the two younger girls over to a table so that they could enjoy their cupcakes and she could ask them how their day had gone.
