They got to the kitchen and Piper told Emily she could sit at the table while she made her the sandwich. "Do you like your sandwiches cut?" she asked Emily.
Emily nodded. "Can you cut it into two triangles please?"
"Mmm-hmm." Piper took out the peanut butter and started making the sandwich. "Would you like anything to drink?"
"Can I have some milk?" Emily asked.
"Sure!" Piper handed her the plate with the sandwich Piper went to the fridge to get the milk as Phoebe and Prue sat down at the table with Emily. "Would you guys like some tea?"
"A nice hot cup sounds great! Thanks Piper!" said Prue.
"Oh me too," said Phoebe excitedly. "Isn't she the best?" she said to Emily in a silly voice.
"Yup!" said Emily nodding with a smile as Piper handed her the glass of milk and smiled back at her. "You guys are the nicest friends I've met here." They all smiled at her.
"That's right, you just moved here," said Phoebe remembering. "So how's it been with the move and all?"
She looked at Phoebe with her innocent eyes, then looked down and said, "Sad." The room got quiet as she paused for a moment, then she started again and said, "I miss my mommy and daddy."
Piper was getting out the teacups from the cabinet. Her head bowed down as she sighed. She could imagine how hard this must be for her.
"Oh honey," said Phoebe placing her hand on Emily's, "I know."
Piper walked over to Emily and sat down next to her as she said, "It'll be ok. We're all here with you to try to make all the bad stuff go away. And when it does, you'll be back with your daddy in no time!"
"Really?" said Emily as picked up her head.
"I have no doubt about it!" said Piper.
Just then the teakettle went off with it's high pitched whistle, startling Emily.
"It's tea time!" said Piper making a silly face at Emily as she got up and tickled her head with her fingertips. Emily curled up her shoulders and smiled. After Piper made the tea, she handed the cups to Prue and Phoebe. Then all of a sudden Kit jumped on top of the table. Emily gasped and covered her face with her hands.
"What's the matter honey you don't like cats?" asked Phoebe. Emily, who still had her face covered shook her head back and forth as a no.
"Oh she's just a silly kitty," said Piper as she scooped Kit off the table and put her to the ground. "See, all better." Emily uncovered her face and let out a sigh of relief. "Thanks," she said quietly. "See, I told you we could make the bad stuff go away," said Piper. Emily gave a half smile.
"Piper?" she said sweetly.
"Yeah."
"Do you still have brownies?" asked Emily meekly.
"Boy you're getting the royal treatment here," said Piper jokingly.
Emily looked a little upset for she thought she had said something wrong. She thought maybe it was wrong of her to ask. "Oh no, it's ok. I don't have to have any."
"No, don't be silly. I was only kidding. Of course you can have some," said Piper as she gave a loving smile. She took the tray of brownies from the counter and handed Emily one. Then she said, "And maybe Phoebe can go inside and put on some cartoons for you to watch."
"Cartoons AND a brownie?" Emily said excitedly. They all smiled and laughed.
"Come on, I'll lead the way," said Phoebe as she took Emily by the hand to the living room. Emily plopped on the couch as Phoebe turned on the TV.
"Thanks Phoebe, you're really nice too!" said Emily with a smile.
"Awww, you're such a sweetie!" she said as she smiled back at her. "Listen, I'll be back I'm just gonna go in the kitchen for a while. If you need anything, just yell, ok."
"Ok," said Emily as she nodded.
Emily nodded. "Can you cut it into two triangles please?"
"Mmm-hmm." Piper took out the peanut butter and started making the sandwich. "Would you like anything to drink?"
