The lamb was in a happy Wendy's arms.

Cecilia recognized Wendy from Captain Hook's attempts to capture Peter Pan with his friends. Her body shook again. Wendy was not going to keep the lamb. Her eyes were on Wendy as the latter abandoned a tree. She followed her. She forgot about Captain Hook for a moment.

Cecilia stretched her arms as though she prepared to embrace Wendy. She lunged at her before the latter stepped forward. Cecilia's eyes widened again the minute she fell. After contacting the ground, she winced.

Tears ran down Cecilia's face another time. From falling and never obtaining her toy.

Memories formed. Memories of a young Cecilia opening a Christmas present and holding a new stuffed lamb. Memories of the girl resting with it under a blanket every evening. The lamb was going to exist in a mere memory.

Cecilia stood before she heard footsteps from behind. She looked back.

Captain Hook frowned and approached Cecilia at the same time. ''I'll try to capture Wendy tomorrow. Let's return to the ship,'' he said.

Captain Hook's eyes widened after Cecilia wrapped her arms around his waist. A scowl formed. Captain Hook was going to be Cecilia's new lamb.

THE END
