Finding Myself

As Eulogy wanders in search of Spirit, a voice calls to her. Emotion laces the single hitched word and she turns to see her daughter rushing toward her. She turns to sit and capture Gloom in a full hug, sitting up to wrap her slender, scarred legs around her precious girl and envelopes her child in a huge hug. Spirit appears soon after, less enthusiastic to see her but still moving forward to embrace her as well. She sneaks one leg around Spirit while keeping the other around Gloom, Eulogy hugs them both for as long as they will let her. Tears spill down her dark cheeks as she lays her head over top Gloom’s, happiness filling her heart even as the tears fall.

When her children are ready to end the embrace, she will try to place a kiss on the crowns of both of their heads. Now, Spirit will be a little trickier since he is taller than her but, if he leans down for it, she will give him one all the same. If either of them wants to stay pressed into her, Eulogy will welcome it as she begins to talk, “My beautiful Gloom. My sweet Spirit. I know things have been difficult for you and I am sorry that I wasn’t here for you. But, I want to try to make up it to both of you… if you’ll allow me try.” She wipes away the tears that had spilled down her cheeks, offering them both a sad but hopeful smile. Time is precious and Eulogy wants to spend the rest of her life with those who are most important to her; her children.
