Helanie:
"Oh, Helanie!" Vani yelled and ran into my arms the minute I entered the house. I immediately hugged her back while Emmet walked in, guiding the warriors to place our bags in the corner and the gifts for Vani up front.
"Hey, have you lost weight?" I noticed it immediately, and my heart broke for her. She was basically just bones.
"Oh, that's nothing. I'm fine," she lied, avoiding my eyes before turning to look at Emmet. "I knew you were coming, and I prayed you brought Emmet with you," she added, making her bias very clear.
Emmet responded with a smirk and a gentle pat on her head.
"And I came bearing gifts," he replied, making her clap her hands excitedly.
Honestly speaking, that was all him. I'd been so stressed after Azura's arrival that bringing gifts didn't even cross my mind. But Emmet had it all covered. From fruits and groceries to school supplies and even clothes. He brought everything.
