"Mama… Mama… Mama…Mama…Mama…Mama…Mama…Mama…Mama…Mama…Mama."
"Star, stop that, yore Mama needs her rest," Vin chided his little girl quietly. For all of Kaiyana's grit when they first found her, not only was she shot but she just wasn't very healthy. Nathan said she was pretty sick, mostly from bad nutrition and lack of sleep. He said that when you put that together with Kaiyana's gunshot wound and bumps and bruises and emotional stress, they could expect her to sleep for quite awhile.
Stars voice interrupted Vin's thoughts, "But I have already waited a very long time and Mama has slept for a very long time and I mama to hug me and tell me good stories," In the short time they'd had together Vin had learned that when Star wanted something or was very upset she had a strong tendency to whine and talk in long run-on sentences.
"I'm real sorry, Darlin' an' I know Mama's bin sleepin' a long time but she's real tired. Now I know you want Mama to git all better, right?"
"Yes," Star said guiltily.
"Then we've got to let her git her rest, alright Darlin'?"
"Alright," Star conceded. After thinking a moment Star spoke again, "But can I stay here and wait for her to wake up?"
"Yeah, I'spose ya could," Vin gave in.
"YAAAAAY!" Star yelled.
"But only if you're nice 'n quiet so Mama kin rest some, okay?"
"Okay," She said a little sadly. With that Star laid down beside her mother, held her hand, and quietly started humming a pretty little song.
Vin's curiosity peaked, he had to ask, "What's that…?" However, his words were interrupted when he saw Kaiyana's eyelids flutter and her hand squeeze Star's.
"Mama?" Star said hopefully and softly.
With that soft-spoken word Kaiyana's eyes shot open and she spoke, "Hello, my angel."
With that Star started crying and threw herself at her mother in a big hug which Kaiyana gladly returned. With her head buried in her mothers good shoulder and through steady tears Star spoke, "Oh, Mama, I missed you so much and I was so scared and I was…oh, Mama, I love you," she gushed.
"It's okay Baby, it's okay," Kaiyana soothed. "I love you so much," Kaiyana paused a moment and looked at Vin, there eyes met and somehow she new everything really would be even better then okay, "Yes, angel, everything is going to be just fine, we are finally home."
