A little girl - II

It had taken 3 more days to get approval from the doctor. Now she could finally go home. 

Alexis was present more than usual and she only saw Salvatore in fleeting moments. It was more like she would ask the doctor how she was, take a look at her, and then leave. 

The appendicitis operation was successful and now she could barely feel the pain or even something that would remotely point to the fact that she had it removed. 

Currently, they were on their way home. Evelyn stared out of the car before looking back to the driver's seat. Salvatore was in it, driving with no effort but she knew he paid more than enough attention to the road. The one sitting next to him in the passenger seat was his mother and Alexis was humming to the soft piano tunes. 

There was something about Alexis that unnerved her. 

She was like the combination of a civilian and a woman brought and raised in the world that she was raised in.
