A few months later.

Apple… there hasn’t been any news about you.

Pumpkin: I see… you haven’t found him yet? No… no don’t apologize Helium, I know you’re doing your best… Okay, just, don’t give up okay?

Mama is on a first name basis with the lady who is trying to find you. She’s been hanging around a lot in fact. At first I thought she was just trying to make sure she knew everything there was possibly to know about what happened. She asked me a lot of questions… Like, if I saw anyone hanging around the fountain the day you disappeared. If you said anything else before it happened. She seemed really on top of things. 

But now.. she comes over during her time when she’s not working, and mama has been smiling again. I think she is trying to prepare her for if they don’t find you. I know that’s not true Apple. I know you’re coming home…
