Saving an old friend.

After all that stocking, it was time to save some old friends. Sunshine had called Nimo and told her to take a leave from the military base. Her friend had done as she said and she was back in the city already, at her family's home. 

As soon as she walked into the gate of the medium family sized home, a delicious smell of food wafted through the air, coming from the open kitchen window. 

"Smells delicious." Sunshine stomach rumbled in anticipation at the lost taste of the memory of Maya Fawk's sea food boil. No one did it better than her best friend's mother. 

It had been so long since she last had it. Two months in the current timeline but if she counted the apocalypse years, it had been four years and eleven months. 

She was intimately familiar with the house, so she made her way to the backyard, no sooner had she come into sight when little children run up to her. Luckily, she was ready, armed with a packet of lollipops.
