POV: Melody
Opening her eyes, Melody wiped the small line of drool from the corner of her lips and looked around the room.
'Mmh, I am glad Mom told me to take a nap before beginning my Quest. Now I feel fully rested and ready to take on whatever comes my way.' Thinking nothing of the strange occurrence, Melody hyped herself up while glancing over at the sleeping woman relaxing in the plush recliner across the room.
Right after she had finished reaching the halfway point of her Evolution, her Mom had suddenly advised her that it was best to sleep and allow her body some time to adjust to the traumatic event it had experienced.
The whole scenario seemed foreign to Melody since, from the beginning, she had been treated as a tool to better the Family interest and not a person. Yet here her Mom was, acting as if she cared about her well-being.
