The Start Of Something New

It had gotten pretty late at night by the time Sean was done typing out the case papers and figuring out the opening statements. He left out the few areas that he needed to reconfirm with Seraphina and created the approximate documents. As he left his office that night, his thoughts went back to their conversation that day. Seraphina had smiled and this time, it wasn't that fake, practiced smile that she gave people to convince them that she was alright. No, this smile was genuine. The way she smiled at his awkwardness, the way she cared for Sia and especially that hint of fire that he saw in her eyes earlier that afternoon, made him sure that the Seraphina that he knew, was still in there somewhere.
