Housewarming (Part 1)

Aberdeen City, 16 years prior

Little Althea looked around her new room in awe. It was very cute, even bigger than the dormitory room she shared with four other girls. 

It had pink walls, a large bed, a table so she could draw and study, and a play space with toys! So many toys!!

She counted and there were fourteen stuffed toys. Fourteen!

And 'mom' and 'dad', when they showed it to her earlier, told her she had it all for herself! 

She turned her little head to look up at the young Garan, who had been watching her reaction.

She grinned and her feet pattered in his direction, opening her arms to his arms. 

"Is it our new home?" She asked Garan, who embraced her back, who was feeling sad that it took her so long to find one. 

"Hmm…" he said after a while, "Yes. You can now eat all the delicious food you want until you're full." He paused, apprehensive she'd eat too much and hurt herself.
