A new day

Hope was slightly cross as she focused applying her foundation. As she evened her complexion she focused on the image in the mirror. Slowly pulling and whipping away the excess and removing the powerless feeling at the same moment. She blinded and contoured her facial strong points reviling the warrior. She drew power from fierce woman inside.

She had already been up for two hours and was now taking a moment for herself. She had already made breakfast cleaned the leftover remains from the table and counters. Picked up and folded all of the blankets and placed them back in the storage ottoman. Checked in on Jane a few times gave her meds that she knew her body would just burn off. Hope was thankful that Jane had never tired any alcohol yet. It would probably be her dead giveaway when she couldn't get drunk. This was something she had to adapt to in her own life. It was a side effect of the gift she was given one that she would make time and time again.

Her makeup progressed to her eyes as she applied the final touches to her eyelashes. Hope was upset with Russel she understood why he did what he did by putting that boy on that plane. She was just frustrated because they both gave up so much and it had to rebuild. What an empire he created to risk it all at the end. This time it wasn't just the two of them. She focused as she applied her lipstick.

She understood the relationship between themselves, Ann and Kyle. She would have probably have asked for the same exact favor if she was in their shoes. Nothing could be helped and she hated that she couldn't do anything. All she could do is dress herself and hold her head up high. It might be the time to tell her everything. She prayed that the boy would stay out of her life. Her and Russel tried to put other men in her life but she just seamed to not see them. Despite their charm and achievements.

She was mad at Lue, she was bright and figured out the truth about Jane. She loved Jane as much as the rest of them so she was protective. She saw her gifts as a blessing and understood that they where limited. If it wasn't for Jane she would have been a very sick girl and would probably be still to this day. Hope calmed herself as she continued to transform herself from a maid to the queen of her castle. She put every hair in place and secured it with a hairspray.

Hope looked at the woman in the mirror and saw a beautiful strong woman looking back at her. She knew that she was strong enough. Despite her tinder heart that ached for her daughter. Hope knew that they both gave each other the greatest blessing that life could offer them, It gave them each other.
