Elphaba scowled couldn't believed what her best friend just asked her, her deceased mother coming back as her daughter? Galinda knew how much Melena's death affected Elphaba as a child and it still affects her today.

"Why would you ask something like that?!" she snapped and Galinda backed away. "I..I.."

"You what?!" Elphaba was on a rage "You honestly think my mother who died in childbirth with my sister came back as my daughter?! You know how much her death affected me as a child and you have the nerve to come and ask me that?!"
"Elphie I didn't mean to upset you, I'm sorry."

"Just leave me alone!" Elphaba stormed off nudging her best friend to the side and walked up to the master bedroom.

Elphaba closed the bedroom door flopped down onto the bed letting out a sob. She dearly missed her mother she was the only person that loved her and kept her smiling. She was the only one to see past her green skin. After her death Frex became extremely neglectful not wanting anything to do with his own daughter.

She was really lonely and her only companions were animals, squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, cats, dogs, birds etc.

They didn't care about her green skin, in fact they didn't care about it at all.

She spent most of her free time at her mother's grave growing up even past midnight and her father won't even ask where she has been.

Just then Adrina walked into the bedroom carrying her plush rabbit wanting to cuddle with her mother.

"Mama?" Elphaba turned her head and looked at her daughter wiping her cheeks not wanting Adrina to see her cry.

"Yes sweetie?"

"Can I cuddle with you?" Elphaba nodded "Yes sweetie." Adrina got on the bed and snuggled into her mother's embrace dozing off quietly.

Elphaba lightly rubbed her daughter's head careful not to wake her and gently kissed her hair and fell asleep as well.
