"Felicia, thank you for loving my brother, for accepting him!"

Susie pouted, and I took the mug from her, taking a sip.

The clear, floral fragrance of the tea enveloped my taste buds, unlike anything I had ever experienced before.

It was like morning dew, a divine elixir, extraordinary in every sense.
