"Hold still, pet. Let me finish combing your hair." Cooed the old woman as she gently combed the little girl's red hair. "But Gram I wanna go play!" Protested the girl. "In a moment, love. In a moment. You want to look your best for your woodland friends don't you?" Her grandma tickled her. The girl squirmed and giggled. Finally the old woman put down the comb. "There you go. Run along now. But do try to keep yourself clean this time. Now give me kiss." The woman held out her arms and the little girl flew into them. She kissed the woman's cheek then scampered out of the room, hair flying wildly like the mane of a wild horse.

Vicki's eyes were still staring into the mirror. Her fingers curled around a silver comb. Suddenly she snapped out of the memory when she heard her name and looked to the door, seeing Martin there. "How long have you been standing there?" She asked, offering a feeble smile. She glanced wearily around the room then walked over to him and put her arms around him. "This was my Gram's room." She rested her head on his shoulder and sighed. "It's... the biggest bedroom. I was going to clean it up for us but I guess I got... distracted."
