“Zinnia, there you are.” Lydia opened the door with a warm smile as she saw Zinnia. Now that Bonnie’s health was improving, the gloom over Lydia had lifted, like a pearl wiped clean of dust.

“Zinnia.” Bonnie’s voice trilled from the living room, followed by the clatter of toys. Quickly, her figure peeked out from behind Lydia, her eyes shining like stars at Zinnia.

“I missed you so much,” Bonnie pouted, tugging at Zinnia’s hand. “You didn’t come see me yesterday.”

Before Zinnia could respond, Lydia gently took Bonnie’s hand, smiling softly. “Mom, remember? I told you Zinnia was busy yesterday.”

After losing her memories, Bonnie mostly saw Lydia, the nanny, and Zinnia, and she’d taken a total shine to Zinnia.

“Want something to make you happy, Bonnie?” Zinnia flashed a grin, leaning into the corner to yank out a three–foot–tall monster candy cane.

“Wow, a candy cane! It’s so huge and long!” Bonnie’s eyes sparkled as she clapped her hands in delight.

Zinnia handed the candy cane over, and Bonnie grabbed it eagerly. “Thank you, Zinnia. You’re the best!”

Lydia gave a fond eye–roll. “You always bring her something. She asks about you every single day.”

“Then I’ll come visit more often,” Zinnia said as she changed her shoes and stepped into the living room.

Bonnie was already planted on the couch, carefully unwrapping the candy cane.
