355. Fields of Erenwood
Mauve made her way out of the Rosenberg residence feeling deflated. She had barely gotten enough sleep and had just spent most of her night tossing and turning in bed.
"Right this way, Princess," Galath said, opening the door to the carriage so that she could go in.
"Thank you," she said to him as she used his arm as support to lift herself.
"I will miss you," Rosa said with her hand to her chest. Her eyes were bigger and she looked like she was on the verge of tears.
"I will miss you too," Mauve replied with a smile.
"Be safe," she cried. Her lower lips quivered and Mauve almost flew out of the carriage to hug the little girl.
She wished she had something to give her. She could tell Ross would be happy to receive anything but unfortunately, she didn't personally own anything worth sharing.
Mauve brought her hand to her neck, feeling the silk scarf. It was the same one Mill had tied around her neck the day she was leaving.
