I stopped in my tracks and burst into tears, finding myself at the stairs of a tall building. I climbed a few before taking a seat, clutching my knees close to my chest with my head down. I couldn't stop the tears. I didn't know where I was. I was lost. Truly lost.
"Small lady, what's the matter?"
I felt a small pet on the top of my head but refused to look up. I didn't answer although the voice seemed very familiar. Apparently it was someone I had known to call me 'Small Lady'.
"Small lady?"
"Leave me alone"
"Lady Serenity, I'm only trying to help. You shouldn't be out here all by yourself, it's dangerous"
"Puu?"
I lifted my head expecting to be greeted by someone I considered a guardian when I was younger. One who I could always depend on to cheer me up and lighten my mood. But the person I saw wasn't Puu, but a person I haven't seen in quite a while and one I thought I would never see again.
"But…you're Prisma…?"
"It's good to see you again Small Lady. But are you going to tell me what's the matter?"
She took a seat next to me on the stairs. I had never thought to ask how she found me or what made her want to talk to me. I had never gotten close to her or any of her sisters. But at that moment I really needed someone and right now she was the only thing close to a mother figure at that moment. As my eyes welled up with tears I embraced her with a hug and cried on her shoulder.
"Oh… dear Small Lady, is there anything I can do?"
