[Author's POV]

'Ugh! Jesus. Be sad but don't overdo it.' Mrs West rolled her eyes as Gracie approached with slow steps, tears streaming down her face.

Gracie sniffles with a snort. 'Oh please. I'm not sad.'

'Come here, you.' Her mom threw her arms open for her daughter.

Gracie walked into her embrace. 'I really missed you, momma.'

'Me too, darling.' Mrs West kissed her daughter's hair. Then she made a face. 'You used my shampoo.'

Gracie smiled. 'It's mine now.'

'Whatever,' Her mom rolls her eyes. 'Let's go home.'

[Gracie's POV]

The drive home was "splen'id" if Charlotte were to say it. I don't know what Quebec did to mom but I'm glad she's changed. At least from what I'm seeing, she's not dressed like a hobo, bedraggled and reeking of alcohol. Oh, she even has a sense of humor now. Listen to this.
