A soft rap sounded from the doorway before Zelda made her way inside. She came the moment that she knew he was back. She didn't want him to know how much she had worried about him but she couldn't wipe the relieved smile that spread across her lips. She was wearing her winter clothes with a big basket held under her arm. Her hair was tied back except for two loose strains that framed her delicate features. She didn't wait for him to move or speak not wanting to aggravate his pain.
Zelda quickly took a few strides towards the bed setting her basket on the chair. If he looked inside he'd find flowers, books and packaged foods. She tried to think of everything that he would need during his stay before dashing from the house to come see him.
"It's good to see you." She didn't want to ask him how he was doing or what he's been through. She was sure he's had enough with the questions so instead she proceeded as if nothing had happened at all.
"I brought you some things." Zelda looked down at her basket with a wide smile. His necklace rested in her jacket pocket feeling heavy compared to the weight of the filled basket. She wanted to give it back to him but in a way she felt as if she had failed him. Her gift truly did nothing.
