spa day

At first she thought that Poem had returned early as she rotated her features towards the sound of foliage being disturbed. Blind eyes blinked as chocolate ears swiveled towards the woman who was not her granddaughter. She certainly wasn’t expecting the owner of the voice that called out her name. At first Rhythm didn’t know who had come to see her, the voice was familiar but she couldn’t quite place it. Iolaire expected that and her name was quick to follow.

”Iolaire!” She returned the greeting warmly, her features shifting from confusion to joy easily. ”Of course, come enjoy the water.” She shifted slightly to allow more room in the tepid waters for her acquaintance. She seemed in much higher spirits than the last time the two of them met. ”You seem much brighter than the last time I saw you.” She observed without fear. With her age most social niceties didn’t matter anymore. Of course Rhythm was in brighter spirits as well. Time healed all wounds, not that Rhythm would ever forget the pain of Shaye’s loss.
