“Breakfast is almost ready. Go freshen up.” Her voice was a soft, enticing melody, convincing Alice with its

return. “Alright, I'm up. I'll be quick.”

In the bathroom, Alice found everything prepared by Norah's thoughtful hands. Warm water filled the basin, her

hand. It was then she noticed Alice approaching in the wheelchair, ready to start the day together. The table was
