In The Eyes of the Beholder

"What are you doing here? To gloat to our faces?" Lily asked, crossing her arms over her chest.

"Why would I do that?" Shia asked, smiling at the three. "Why don't you all come in?"

"We are fine walking," Lily said, about to pull her sisters with her but Shia stopped her.

"Your oldest sister is still recovering and your youngest seems to not be doing too well. Are you sure you want them to walk fifteen kilometres to your house?" She asked.

Florence looked at the slightly pale and weak faces of her sisters, sighing in defeat.

"I am fine, Flo," Lily said but she just shook her head.

"Do you think I will be able to carry you all the way home?" She asked teasing. "Just this once. Ok?"

Lily looked at Florence and her youngest sister then nodded in defeat.

"We are not paying for the trip there." She said, glaring at Shia who chuckled as she opened the door.
