Vella strides down the stairs
And wraps me in a friendly hug.
She melts into my embrace,
And I kiss the crown of her head.
A soft sound escapes her lips
Between a purr and a hum.
"Ready to lose yourself
In the beauty of nature, Vella?"
"So ready!
The first time
We've hiked together
In five years."
My heart clenches.
