Daphne's heart raced as she made sure that she had everything packed. She had to admit that she was going to miss it here. She'd made such good friends and the counseling sessions with Gloria had done wonders for her self esteem.
Until Niles arrived, that is.
At the thought of him, she swallowed hard, determined not to cry.
A knock on the door startled her.
"Come in."
She looked up to see Brenda standing in the doorway.
"Daphne, Dr. Crane's downstairs."
"Which one?" Daphne asked cautiously.
"The one from the radio." Brenda said.
Daphne smiled with relief. "Tell him I'll be right down."
Brenda smiled and hugged Daphne.
"Everything will be okay, I promise." Brenda said as she closed the door.
When she was alone once more, Daphne silently rehearsed what she would say to Frasier.
I wanted more time to say goodbye to me friends... I had an extra session with me counselor, Gloria...
But she knew that Frasier would see right through her excuses.
After she said her final goodbyes to her friends and took one last look around her room, she picked up her bags and headed downstairs.
Just relax, Daphne... everything will be fine.
She took a deep breath and walked into the lobby; her heart swelling with love when she saw Frasier and Martin smiling at her.
When Frasier held out his arms and moved toward her, she put down her bags and ran toward him; throwing herself into his embrace...
And seconds later, she burst into tears.
